The  Metropolitan  Museum  of  Art  is  a private  corporation, 
managed  and  controlled  by  a Board  of  Trustees,  chosen  from,  its 
members. 

At  a public  meeting,  held  on  the  23rd  day  of  November,  1869, 
a Provisional  Committee  of  Fifty  cultured  and  public-spirited 
citizens  were  appointed  to  organize  the  Association. 

On  the  31st  day  of  January,  1870,  at  a meeting  of  this  Com- 
mittee, the  Officers  and  Trustees  were  elected,  consisting  of  a 
President  (John  Taylor  Johnston),  two  Vice-Presidents,  a Treas- 
urer, Secretary  and  twenty-one  Trustees. 

On  the  13th  day  of  April,  1870,  a Charter  was  granted  by  the 
Legislature  of  the  State  of  New  York,  and  at  a meeting  of  the 
Trustees,  held  on  April  27th,  1870,  a Constitution  was  adopted. 

Soon  after,  negotiations  were  entered  into  which  consummated 
in  the  purchase  of  a collection  of  pictures,  consisting  chiefly  of 
specimens  of  the  Dutch  and  Flemish  Schools,  but  containing  also 
important  works  of  Italian,  French,  Spanish  and  English  masters. 

It  became  necessary  to  make  immediate  preparation  for  the 
custody  and  exhibition  of  these  paintings.  The  Trustees  took 
accordingly  a lease  for  two  years  from  May,  1871,  of  the  building 
known  as  No.  681  Fifth  Avenue,  which,  although  too  small  for 
their  purpose,  was  the  most  available  habitation  they  could  And. 

In  1872,  The  Metropolitan  Museum  of  Art  was  removed  from 
its  temporary  quarters  at  681  Fifth  Avenue  to  128  West  Fourteenth 
Street.  This  large,  double  house,  known  as  the  Cruger  Mansion, 
was  leased  for  a number  of  years  by  the  Trustees.  The  greenhouses 
and  conservatories  were  fltted  up  for  the  exhibition  of  sculptures, 
and  in  one  of  its  courtyards  the  Trustees  built  a picture-gallery. 
This  gallery,  lighted  from  the  roof,  had  flve  times  as  much  wall 
space  as  the  old  quarters  on  Fifth  Avenue,  and  enabled  the  Trus- 
tees to  extend  the  interest  of  the  Museum  by  loan  exhibitions  of 
paintings,  and  the  display  of  the  Cesnola  Collection  of  antiquities 
from  Cyprus,  a portion  of  which  had  already  arrived  in  this  coun- 
try. The  Museum  remained  in  this  building  until  the  last  days 
of  1879,  and  was  daily  open  to  the  public  from  10  o’clock  a.m. 
until  6 o’clock  p.m. 

On  the  5th  of  April,  1871,  the  State  Legislature,  at  the  request 
of  the  Municipal  Authorities  of  this  City,  passed  an  act  appropriat 
ing  the  sum  of  1500,000,  with  which  to  erect  a building  in  the  Cen- 


tral  Park,  “ for  the  purpose  of  establishing  and  maintaining  therein 
a Museum  and  Gallery  of  Art.” 

On  April  32d,  1876,  the  Legislature  authorized  and  directed  the 
Department  of  Public  Parks  to  make  and  enter  into  a contract  with 
The  Metropolitan  Museum  of  Art,  for  the  occupation  by  it  of  the 
building  which  was  then  being  erected,  and  such  other  additions  as 
may  be  made  to  it  from  time  to  time. 

On  the  24th  day  of  December,  1878,  the  Park  Department  exe- 
cuted a written  agreement  with  The  Metropolitan  Museum  of  Art, 
by  virtue  of  which  the  Trustees  took  possession  of  the  building  in 
Central  Park,  which  was  then  finished;  and  during  the  year  1879 
all  the  collections  of  the  Museum  were  removed  from  the  building 
on  Fourteenth  Street  and  transferred  to  their  new  home  in  Cen- 
tral Park.  Dp  to  this  date  the  Museum  was  managed,  and  its  work 
done,  by  different  Committees  of  Trustees;  but  it  now  became  evi- 
dent that  the  daily  work  had  grown  far  beyond  the  possibility,  of 
being  managed  through  the  personal  supervision  of  committees,  and 
in  1879,  General  Louis  Palma  di  Cesnola,  who  was  then  Secretary  of 
the  Board,  was  chosen  Director  and  placed  in  charge  of  the  Mu- 
seum, in  which  capacity  he  remained  until  his  death  (November 
20th,  1904). 

The  new  building  in  Central  Park  was  formally  inaugurated  oy 
President  Hayes,  on  March  30th,  1880.  The  first  exhibition  of  the 
Catharine  Lorillard  Wolfe  Collection  took  place  in  one  of  the  old 
Eastern  galleries.  Soon  after  it  was  found  necessary  to  add  two 
wings:  the  South  and  the  North.  The  first  was  inaugurated 
December  18th,  1888;  the  second,  November  4th,  1894;  in  both 
cases  with  appropriate  ceremonies. 

Plans  were  then  formed  by  President  Henry  G.  Marquand, 
General  di  Cesnola,  and  the  Board  of  Trustees,  and  designs  made  by 
the  architect,  Richard  M.  Hunt,  for  the  creation  of  a new  building 
which  would  more  appropriately  house  the  art  treasures  confided 
to  their  care,  and  the  City  promptly  made  the  necessary  appropria- 
tion of  one  million  two  hundred  thousand  dollars  for  immediate 
?ise  in  the  furtherance  of  the  project.  On  December  22d,  1902,  the 
center  portion  of  the  east  front  of  this  new  building  was  completed 
and  formally  placed  in  the  hands  of  the  Trustees  by  the  Mayor,  the 
Hon.  Seth  Ijow,  and  the  doors  were  then  opened  to  the  public.  In 
1904  the  City  made  another  appropriation  of  one  million  two  hun- 
dred and  fifty  thousand  dollars  for  extending  the  new  building  down 
Fifth  Avenue  about  three  hundred  and  fifty  feet,  the  working  plane 

vi 


for  which  are  now  being  perfected  by  the  architects,  McKim,  Mead 
& White,  and  the  construction  will  be  commenced  at  as  early  a date 
as  is  practicable. 

The  building  is  of  light  gray  stone,  classical  in  design,  and 
will,  when  completed,  form  a hollow  square  with  the  old  structures 
enclosed  in  a grand  court.  The  estimate  of  the  total  cost  is  twenty- 
two  million  dollars. 

The  chair  of  the  President,  made  vacant  by  the  death  of  Mr. 
Henry  G.  Marquand  on  February  26th,  1902,  was  filled  by  Mr.  F. 
W.  Ehinelander,  who  died  September  24th,  1904.  On  November 
21st,  1904,  Mr.  J.  Pierpont  Morgan  was  unanimously  elected  Presi- 
dent, and  on  January  21st,  1905,  Sir  Caspar  Purdon  Clarke  was 
elected  Director,  of  the  Museum. 

The  Board  of  Trustees  have  absolute  control  of  all  the  funds 
donated  and  bequeathed  to  the  Institution  for  its  enrichment,  and 
such  other  funds  as  are  or  may  be  appropriated  by  the  City  for  its 
maintenance.

This  hand-book  embraces  all  the  pictures  which  are  con- 
tained in  the  galleries,  staircases,  and  the  Grand  Hall.  Of 
the  pictures  herein  catalogued,  some  are  lent,  a large  num- 
ber have  been  purchased  by  the  Trustees,  and  the  others  have 
been  acquired  either  by  gift  or  bequest.  The  larger  portion  of 
them  are  accompanied  by  conditions  which  render  impossible  a 
proper  classification  of  the  pictures  in  the  galleries  of  the  Museum, 
and,  while  the  Trustees  fully  recognize  the  logical,  historical  and 
aesthetic  reasons  for  such  a classification  of  their  exhibits,  they  do 
not  think  it  of  greater  moment  (at  least  for  the  present)  than  their 
acquisition.  Miss  Catharine  Lorillard  Wolfe  bequeathed  in  1887 
her  entire  collection  of  oil  paintings  and  water-color  drawings  to 
the  Museum,  accompanied  by  an  (endowment  of  1200,000.  The 
income  of  this  fund  to  be  used  for  the  preservation  and  increase 
of  the  collection,  which  by  the  terms  of  the  will  must  be  kept 
together  or  be  forfeited  to  the  legal  heirs  of  the  donor. 

Other  donations  and  bequests  of  great  value,  both  in  objects  of 
art  and  money,  have  from  time  to  time  augmented  the  wealth  and 
the  treasures  of  the  Museum:  the  first  being  the  munificent  gift 
of  Mr.  Henry  G.  Marquand,  embracing  53  oil  paintings  by  Old 
Masters,  and  pictures  of  the  English  School;  the  last,  in  impor- 
tance, that  of  Mr.  Jacob  S.  Eogers,  who  at  his  death  (July,  1901) 
bequeathed  to  the  Institution  his  whole  fortune,  amounting  to 
several  millions  of  dollars.

world-famed  schools  of  paintings,  from  Jan  Van  Eyck  (1390-14:40) 
to  the  latest  and  most  interesting  of  the  modern  painters.  In 
Gallery  No.  11  may  be  seen  the  first  acquisition  of  the  Museum  by 
purchase,  in  1871,  a collection  of  pictures  comprised  of  works  by 
the  early  Dutch  and  Flemish  painters. 

In  the  southeast  staircase  there  is  a group  of  eight  pictures  of 
the  Kenaissance  period,  purchased  at  Florence,  and  given  to  the 
Museum  by  Mr.  Cornelius  Vanderbilt  in  1880. 

Gallery  No.  15  is  occupied  with  pictures  from  the  collection  of 
Mr.  George  A.  Hearn,  twenty-four  of  which  he  has  given  to  the 
the  Museum. 

A remarkable  work  by  Eugene  Delacroix,  “ L’Enlevement  de 
Eebecca,”  has  been  added  to  the  Catharine  Lorillard  Wolfe  Collec- 
tion, also  a landscape  by  Rousseau  and  “Boats  on  the  Shore,”  by

by  Van  Dyck,  the  gift  of  Mr.  George  A.  Hearn,  1905. 

The  most  important  loan  in  the  year  1902  was  that  of  Mr.  George 
W.  Vauderbilt,  who  lent  for  one  year  one  hundred  and  thirty-five 
pictures  from  the  collection  formed  by  his  father,  Mr.  William  H. 
Vanderbilt.  The  term  of  this  loan  has  now  been  extended  in- 
definitely.

ALBANI,  Francesco.  Bolognp.se  School. 

Bom  at  Bologna,  1578;  died  there,  1660.  Son  of  a silk  merchant.  Hia 
father  desired  to  bring  him  up  to  his  own  profession,  but  his  decided  art  genius 
so  asserted  itself  that  he  was  placed  in  the  academy  of  Denys  Calvaert,  where 
Guido  Reni  was  a pupil.  Albani  and  Guido  became  friends,  and  when  the 
latter  went  to  Rome  and  entered  the  school  of  Carracci,  Albani  quickly  fol- 
lowed. When  Annibale  Carracci  was  employed  on  the  frescos  of  St.  Giacomo 
degli  Spagnuoli  he  fell  sick,  and  by  his  recommendation  Albani  was  selected 
to  finish  them.  He  also  painted  the  mythological  frescos  in  the  Verospi  (now 
Torlonia)  Palace.  In  the  Borghese  Gallery  and  at  Turin  are  his  famous 
pictures  of  the  “Four  Elements.”  He  also  painted  for  the  Duke  of  Mantua 
the  stories  of  “Diana  and  Action”  and  “Venus  and  Cupid.”  His  best 
pictures  are  those  of  mythological  and  fanciful  subjects.

ALLEGRI,  Antonio  (called  II  Correggio)  ( ?).  Parmesan  School. 

Bom  at  Correggio  in  1494  ; died  there,  March  5,  1534.  Son  of  Pel- 
legrino Allegri.  Probably  pupil  of  his  father’s  brother,  Lorenzo,  and  of 
Antonio  Bartolotti,  both  second-rate  painters  of  his  native  town.  At  ^lodena 
he  is  said  to  have  found  a better  master  in  Francesco  Bianchi,  called  Ferrari, 
who  belonged  to  the  school  of  Francia;  but  as  Bianchi  died  in  1510,  this, 
like  all  that  concerns  Correggio’s  training,  is  uncertain.  “Correggio  looked 
at  the  world  in  a single  mood  of  sensuous  joy,”  as  a place  in  which  everj'- 
thing  is  full  of  happy  life  and  soft  pleasure.  A poetic  ideality  untrammeled 
by  the  conventionality  of  schools,  systems,  or  methods  other  than  his 
own,  found  fullest  expression  in  an  all-perA’ading  sweetness  which  charac- 
terizes his  works.  “The  Madonna  of  St.  Francis”  (1514),  “Madonna  of  St. 
George,”  “Madonna  of  St.  Sebastian,”  “La  Notte”  (1522  or  1528),  Dresden 
Gallery;  “Rape  of  Ganymede,”  “Jupiter  and  lo,”  Vienna  Museum;  “Madonna 
Adoring  Jesus,”  Uffizi,  Florence;  “Marriage  of  St.  Catherine,”  Louvre,  Paris. 
Other  works  may  be  seen  in  St.  Petersburg,  London,  Naples,  Venice,  and  other 
Galleries,  notably  that  of  Parma.

ALLORI,  Cristofano  (called  II  Bronzino).  Florentine  School. 

Born  at  Florence,  1577;  died  there,  1621.  Pupil  of  his  father,  and 
afterwards  of  Santo  di  Tito,  whose  style  Cristoforo  at  first  followed,  but 
abandoned  for  the  new  Florentine  eclectic  manner  based  on  that  of  Correggio. 
He  became  one  of  the  best  artists  in  Florence  of  his  time,  but  his  habits 
were  irregular,  and  he  left  but  few  pictures.  He  excelled  in  portrait 
painting.

BARTOLOMMEO,  Fra  (or  II  Frate)  (?).  Baccio,  della 
Porta.  Florentine  School. 

t Bom  at  Sofflgnano,  near  Prato,  1475;  died  at  Florence,  1517.  He  was 
a pupil  of  Cosimo  Rosselli  in  Florence,  and  lived  near  the  gate  of  St.  Piero, 
from  which  circumstance  was  derived  his  name  of  della  Porta.  He  was  the 
intimate  friend  of  Mariotto  Albertinelli.  He  had  acquired  great  fame  for 
the  beauty  of  his  Madonnas,  and  had  been  commissioned  to  execute  a 
fresco  of  the  “Last  Judgment”  in  the  Convent  of  St.  Marco,  about  the  time 
when  Savonarola  went  to  Florence  to  preach  against  the  sinfulness  of  the  city 
Bartolommeo  became  the  earnest  friend  of  the  preacher,  and  was  so  carried 
away  by  his  influence  that  he  burned  all  his  studies  and  drawings  of  profane 
subjects  and  those  which  represented  nude  figures.  When  Savonarola  was 
seized,  tortured,  and  burned,  Bartolommeo  took  the  vows  of  a Dominican 
friar,  and  left  the  unfinished  pictures  to  be  completed  by  Albertinelli.  During 
four  years  he  led  a most  austere  life,  never  touching  his  pencil.  About  this 
time  Raphael  arrived  in  Florence.  He  was  but  twenty-one,  but  already  a 
great  painter.  He  visited  the  friar’s  cell,  and  a deep  friendship  between  the 
two  was  the  consequence.  To  this  we  owe  the  after  works  of  Fra  Barto- 
lommeo. About  1513  he  visited  Rome.  After  his  return  to  Florence  he 
executed  the  “Madonna  della  Misericordia,”  now  at  Lucca,  and  the  “St. 
Mark,”  which  is  in  the  Pitti  Palace.  His  boy  angels  are  beautifully  painted. 
His  works  are  seen  in  the  Louvre,  Vienna  Gallery,  and  the  Berlin  Museum, 
but  he  is  best  studied  in  Florence.

665  JUSTINIAN  IN  COUNCIL. 

Paris  Salon,  1886. 

Justinian  I (Flavius  Anicius  Justinianus),  surnamed  the  Great,  a Byzan- 
tine Emperor,  born  at  Tauresium,  a village  near  Sardica  (now  Sophia),  in 
Bulgaria,  in  482  or  483 ; died,  565.  He  was  the  son  of  a poor  barbarian  family, 
but  his  elevation  was  promoted  by  his  uncle,  Justin  I,  who,  shortly  before  his 
death  in  527,  adopted  him  as  Co-Emperor.  The  political  events  of  his  reian 
may  be  summed  up  in  the  wars  of  Belisarius  and  the  eunuch  Narses,  wno 
obtained  successes  over  the  Persians  in  the  East,  and  the  Vandals  and  Goths 
in  Italy,  and  in  the  terrible  sedition  which  broke  out  at  Constantinople  in  532. 
The  glory  of  his  reign  is  the  famous  digest  of  Roman  law,  known  generally  as 
the  Justinian  Code,  which  was  compiled  out  of  the  Gregorian,  Theodosian,  and 
Hermogenian  codes,  by  the  ablest  lawyers  of  the  empire,  under  the  genius  of 
the  jurisconsult,  Tribonian.  Their  labors  consist — I,  of  the  “Statute  Law,” 
or  Justinian  Code,  properly  so  called.  II,  “The  Pandects,”  a digest  of  the 
decisions  and  opinions  of  former  magistrates  and  lawyers.  These  two  com- 
pilations consisted  of  matter  that  lay  scattered  through  more  than  two  thou- 
sand volumes,  now  reduced  to  fifty.  Ill,  “The  Institutes,”  an  abridgment  in 
lOur  books,  containing  the  substance  of  all  the  laws  in  elementary  form. 
IV,  The  laws  of  modern  date,  including  Justinian’s  own  edicts,  collected  into 
one  volume  and  called,  “The  New  Code.”  These  labors,  which  a Caesar  had 
not  been  able  to  accomplish,  were  completed  by  the  year  541.  Besides  this 
important  work  of  imperial  reform,  Justinian  was  a great  builder  and  engineer, 
and  works  of  public  utility  were  kept  constantly  in  progress  in  all  parts  of  the 
empire.  He  was  remarkable  for  his  temperance  and  chastity,  and  not  less  for 
his  great  learning  and  diligent  application  to  the  duties  of  his  high  office.

BERCHEM  (Berghem),  Claes  (Nicholas),  (Nicolaes). 

Dutch  School. 

Born  at  Haarlem,  1620;  died  at  Amsterdam,  1683.  Son  of  Pieter 
Klaasze.  The  reason  for  his  being  called  Berchem,  or  Berghem,  is  not  known, 
but  he  usually  signed  his  works  by  that  name.  He  studied  with  his  father. 
Van  Goyen,  J.  B.  Weenix,  and  Jan  Wils,  and  married  the  daughter  of  the  latter. 
It  is  evident  from  his  works  that  he  went  to  Italy,  although  no  account  of  his 
having  done  so  is  given.  He  painted  genre,  battles,  landscapes,  cattle,  and 
portraits.  His  best  works  are  his  small  landscapes  with  figures  and  cattle. 
Berchem  is  the  most  celebrated  of  the  group  of  painters  to  which  he  belongs.

338  THE  MASSACRE  OF  THE  MAMELUKES. 

“ The  Viceroy  of  Egypt,  wishing  to  crush  at  one  blow  the  warlike  Mame- 
lukes who  were  making  havoc  among  his  people,  on  the  first  day  of  May,  1811, 
convened,  under  a false  pretext,  their  leaders. 

“They  were  to  meet  in  the  old  Palace  of  Cairo,  and  these  proud  Mame- 
lukes in  gorgeous  robes,  and  golden  helmets  shining  in  the  sun,  rode  up  the 
strange,  narrow  street,  cut  out  of  the  solid  rock,  where,  in  this  narrow  defile, 
conscienceless  Mehemet  had  laid  his  trap.  When  the  brilliant  procession 
arrived  at  the  gate  ‘El  Azale,’  the  soldiers  cried  ‘Treason!’  as  they  saw  each 
house  filled  with  Albanians,  armed  with  long  guns.  The  Mamelukes,  sur- 
rounded by  impassable  walls,  fell  like  ripe  corn,  under  a hail  of  bullets,  a con- 
fused mass  of  men  and  beasts;  the  horses,  neighing  in  their  fright,  bounded 
through  pools  of  blood  over  the  bodies  of  the  wounded,  while  the  conquerors 
of  a hundred  battles,  now  conquered,  shook  their  clenched  fists  at  the  terrible 
walls.  Death  passed  over  them  like  a whirlwind,  not  sparing  one  out  of  the 
five  hundred  horsemen.”

BLUM,  Robert  F.  American  School. 

Born  at  Cincinnati,  Ohio,  1857;  died,  1903.  At  the  age  of  sixteen  he 
entered  a lithographic  establishment,  but  soon  came  to  New  York  and  gave  a 
number  of  years  to  illustrative  work.  From  1880  to  1889  he  made  several  trips 
abroad.  In  1890  he  went  to  Japan,  commissioned  by  the  Scribners  to  work 
conjointly  with  Sir  Edwin  Arnold.  In  the  mean  time  his  paintings  had 
brought  recognition  and  he  was  awarded  bronze,  silver  and  gold  medals.  The 
“Bead  Stringers,”  a Venetian  subject,  occasioned  his  election  as  associate 
member  of  the  Academy  of  Design,  and  “The  Ameya”  brought  him  into  full 
membership.  Upon  his  return  from  Japan  in  the  fall  of  1892,  after  writing  and 
illustrating  articles  on  Japan,  and  completing  several  easel  pictures,  Mr.  Blum 
made  an  entirely  new  departure,  taking  up  mural  decoration.  The  “Moods  of 
Music”  in  Mendelssohn  Hall,  begun  in  1893,  is  his  first  serious  effort  along  the 
new  lines  and  is  an  initial  proof,  as  later  productions  bear  witness,  that  the 
artist  was  well  qualified  to  exercise  his  powers  in  the  broad  field  of  mural 
painting.

He  is  surrounded  by  a group  of  girls,  all  of  whom  carry  upon  their  slioulders  a 
child  gaily  dressed  in  the  most  brilliant  colors.  Beyond  this  group  in  the

650  THE  HORSE  FAIR. 

Rosa  Bonheur  made  her  dibut  at  the  Paris  Salon  of  1841,  to  which 
she  sent  two  small  pictures  of  sheep,  goats,  and  rabbits.  She  exhibited  each 
following  year  except  1851-52.  In  1853  she  exhibited  her  masterpiece,  the 
now  famous  “ Horse  Fair.”  The  subsequent  history  of  this  painting  is  given  in 
the  following  extract  from  a letter  written  to  IMr.  S.  P.  .\ven.'  bv  ^Ir.  Ernest 
Gambart,  the  original  purchaser  of  the  picture,  formerly  of  London,  and  now 
retired  from  business  and  living  at  Nice:  “I  will  give  you  the  real  storj'  of  the 
‘Horse  Fair’  now  in  New  York.  It  was  painted  in  1852  by  Rosa  Bonheur, 
then  in  her  thirtieth  year,  and  exhibited  in  the  next  Salon.  Though  much 
admired,  it  did  not  find  a purchaser.  It  was  soon  after  exhibited  at  Ghent, 
meeting  again  with  much  appreciation,  but  was  not  sold,  as  art  did  not  flourish 
at  the  time.  In  1855,  tlie  picture  was  sent  by  Rosa  Bonheur  to  her 
native  town  of  Bordeaux,  and  exhibited  there.  She  offered  to  sell  it  to  the 
town  at  the  very  low  price  of  12,000  francs  (82,400).  While  there  I asked  her 
if  she  would  sell  it  to  me,  and  allow  me  to  take  it  to  England  and  have  it  en- 
graved. She  said:  ‘I  wish  my  picture  to  remain  in  France.  I will  once  more 
impress  on  my  countrymen  my  wish  to  sell  it  to  them  for  12.000  francs.  If 
they  refuse,  you  can  have  it,  but  if  you  take  it  abroad,  you  must  pay  me 
40,000  francs.’  The  tovm  failing  to  make  the  purchase,  I at  once  accepted 
these  terms,  and  Rosa  Bonheur  then  placed  the  picture  at  my  disposal. 
I tendered  her  the  40,000  francs,  and  she  said:  ‘I  am  much  gratified  at  your 
giving  me  such  a noble  price,  but  I do  not  like  to  feel  that  I have  taken  advan- 
tage of  your  liberality.  Let  us  see  how  we  can  combine  in  the  matter.  You 
will  not  be  able  to  have  an  engraving  made  from  so  large  a canvas.  Suppose  I 
paint  you  a small  one  of  the  same  subject,  of  which  I wiO  make  you  a present.' 
Of  course  I accepted  the  gift,  and  thus  it  happened  that  the  large  work  went 

13 


traveling  over  the  kingdom  on  exhibition,  while  Thomas  Landseer  was  making 
an  engraving  from  the  quarter-size  replica. 

“After  some  time,  in  1857  (I  think),  I sold  the  original  picture  to  Mr. 
Win.  P.  Wright,  New  York  (whose  picture  gallery  and  residence  were  at  Wee- 
ha  wken,  N.  J.),  for  the  sum  of  30,000  francs,  but  as  he  claimed  a share  of  the 
profits  of  its  exhibition  in  New  York  and  other  cities,  he  really  paid  me  only 
22,000  francs  for  it.  I offered  to  repurchase  the  picture  in  1870  for  50,000 
francs,  but  ultimately  I understood  that  Mr.  Stewart  paid  a much  larger  price 
for  it  on  the  dispersion  of  Mr.  Wright’s  gallery.  The  quarter-size  replica,  from 
which  the  engraving  was  made,  I finally  sold  to  Mr.  Jacob  Bell,  who  be- 
queathed it,  in  1859,  to  the  nation,  and  it  is  now  in  the  National  Gallery  in 
Londcri.  A second,  stiU  smaller,  replica  was  painted  a few  years  later,  and 
was  resold  some  time  ago  in  London  for  £4,000  ($20,000).  There  is  also  a 
smaller  water-color  drawing,  which  was  sold  to  Sir.  Bolckow  for  2,500  guineas 
($12,000),  and  is  now  an  heirloom  belonging  to  the  town  of  Middleborough. 
That  is  the  whole  history  of  this  grand  work.  The  Stewart  canvas  is  the  real 
and  true  original,  and  only  large  size  ‘Horse  Fair.’ 

“Once  in  Mr.  Stewart’s  possession,  it  never  left  his  gallery  until  the 
auction  sale  of  his  collection,  March  25,  1887.  when  it  was  purchased  by  Mr. 
Cornelius  Vanderbilt  for  the  sum  of  $55,500,  and  presented  to  the  Metropolitan 
Museum  of  Art.  Hamerton  calls  Rosa  Bonheur  ‘the  most  accomplished 
female  painter  who  ever  lived,’  and  adds:  ‘She  is  a pure  and  generous 
woman  as  well,  and  can  hardly  be  too  much  admired,  whether  we  regard  her 
as  a woman  or  artist.  She  is  simple  in  her  tastes  and  habits  of  life,  and  many 
stories  are  told  of  her  generosity  to  others.’  ”

496  DEER  IN  THE  FOREST— TWILIGHT. 

The  twilight  gleams  through  a forest  of  trees  from  whose  intertwining 
branches  the  Autumn  leaves  have  fallen,  scattering  their  purple  tints  over  the

at  rest;  two  are  lying  down,  the  other  stands  on  the  alert;  a feeling  of  silence 
pervades  the  scene.

BONINGTON,  Richard  Parkes.  English  School. 

Born  at  Arnold  near  Nottingham,  1801;  died  at  London,  1828.  His 
grandfather,  and  afterward  his  father,  was  governor  at  the  gaol  of  Northamp- 
ton, but  the  father,  having  been  displaced  for  irregularities,  set  up  as  a portrait 
painter  in  Paris.  At  the  age  of  fifteen,  Richard  was  a student  at  the  Louvre, 
and  received  lessons  from  Baron  Gros.  In  1822  he  went  to  Italy.  Returning 
to  Paris,  he  became  a victim  of  consumption,  from  which  he  died  in  London 
in  his  twenty-seventh  year.

On  the  beach,  at  the  landing  place  of  the  fishing  boats,  is  a group  of  people 
buying  and  selling  fish.  At  the  right  a man  is  standing  in  a heavy  wagon  over 
which  is  a canvas  canopy;  the  boat  sails  rising  above  are  relieved  against  a 
mass  of  light  clouds  in  a silvery  gray  sky.  The  man  wearing  a high  hat  who 
is  seated  in  the  center  of  the  group  of  figures  is  said  to  be  William  Cook,  the

BORCH,  Gerard  ter  (Terburg).  Dutch  School. 

Born  at  Zwolle  probably  between  1613  and  1617;  died  at  Deventer,  1681. 
A contemporary  of  Teniers,  and,  like  him,  a painter  of  genre  subjects,  but  of  the 
higher  ranks  in  life.  He  usually  represented  but  few  figures,  and  such  scenes 

14 


as  ladies  at  their  toilets,  musical  parties,  conversations,  etc.  He  excelled  in 
painting  elegant  costumes,  and  his  white  satin  dresses  are  especially  remark- 
able. The  general  tone  of  his  pictures  is  cool,  his  heads  being  warmly  colored. 
He  painted  small  portraits,  but  these  are  rare  in  public  galleries.  His  own 
portrait  is  at  The  Hague.  His  works  number  a little  more  than  one  hundred, 
and  are  of  enormous  value.

BOTH,  Jan  (called  the  Italian).  Dutch  School. 

Jan  born  at  Utrecht  about  1610;  died  there,  1652.  Jan  and  his  brother 
Andries  having  learned  the  elements  of  painting  from  their  father,  Dirck, 
glass  painter,  were  apprenticed  by  him  to  Abraham  Bloemaert.  The  brothers 
traveled  in  France  and  Italy.  At  Rome,  Jan  imitated  the  style  of  Claude 
Lorrain  and  painted  some  excellent  landscapes.  He  returned  to  Utrecht  in 
1640.  Andries  was  drowned  at  Venice,  1650,  and  it  is  said  that  Jan  died  of 
grief  at  the  loss  of  his  brother. 

35  ITALIAN  LANDSCAPE. 

A warm,  sunny  sky,  and  wooded  landscape,  in  the  foreground  of  which 
there  are  two  horsemen,  one  mounted  on  a light  gray  which  is  at  rest,  and  the 
other  dressed  in  a scarlet  cloak  and  riding  a light  bay  at  full  gallop  with  his 
hand  raised  in  salutation  to  a man  whom  he  approaches;  another  man  on  foot 
and  two  dogs  belong  to  this  group,  and  a woman  and  child  are  crossing  the 
field  beyond.  Five  large  trees  in  the  center  with  another  at  the  right  dominate 
the  landscape  which  has  two  large  boulders  at  the  right  of  the  foreground. 
The  middle  distance  is  undulating,  and  a lake  lies  at  the  base  of  the  blue  hills 
tar  away.

493  THE  RESCUE  OF  ARION  FROM  THE  WAVES. 

According  to  the  legend  the  Greek  poet,  Arion,  while  returning  from  a 
musical  contest  in  Sicily  in  which  he  had  been  victor,  was  thrown  into  the  sea 
by  the  sailors,  but  was  saved  and  carried  to  Taenarus  by  dolphins  which  had 
gathered  about  the  ship.  Arion  playing  upon  a lyre  is  seated  on  the  back  of  a 

15 


dolphin  in  the  center  of  the  picture.  Bright  red  drapery  floats  about  the 
figure,  and  sea  gods,  nymphs,  and  dolphins  are  gathered  about  to  listen  to  the 
music.  At  the  left  are  a sinking  ship  and  storm  clouds,  and  above  is  the  bright 
blue  sky.

364  RELIGIOUS  PROCESSION  IN  BRITTANY. 

Purchased  in  1873  from  the  collection  of  the  late  Baron  Strousberg, 
Berlin.  The  Brittany  peasantry  are  very  quaint  in  their  costume,  wearing 
broad-brimmed  hats  and  flowing  hair  and  in  some  districts  trunk  hose  of  the 
sixteenth  century.  They  are  usually  spare  and  wiry  in  their  persons,  ahnosC 
unchanged  in  their  manners,  customs,  and  habits,  and  old  legends  and  super- 
stitions stiU  retain  their  hold  on  the  popular  mind.  Of  ancient  monuments  of 
different  ages  there  is  no  lack  in  Brittany,  and  above  all,  of  Celtic  remains; 
those  extraordinary  masses  of  rough  unhewn  stones  are  supposed  to  be  in 
some  way  connected  with  the  religion  of  the  Druids.  Brittany  appears  to 
have  been  the  sacred  land  of  the  Gauls,  the  center  of  their  worship  to  which 
the  various  nations  and  tribes  repaired  on  pilgrimages  at  stated  times  to  pay 
their  devotions.  Their  mysterious  influence  is  not  yet  by  any  means  effaced 
from  the  minds  of  the  lower  orders  of  Brittany.  Almost  every  church  has  its 
strange  legend,  and  every  saint  his  special  patronage,  and  on  his  fete  day  a pil- 
grimage or  pardon  is  celebrated.  The  pardon  of  St.  Mathurin  held  at  Lamballe 
on  Whitsunday  is  much  frequented  by  pilgrims,  who  dance  the  old  Breton 
dances.  The  pardon  celebrated  four  times  a year  at  Rumegol,  near  Le  Faou,  is 
attended  with  very  curious  ceremonies.  These  pardons  take  place  at  fixed 

I? 


periods  around  about  certain  churches,  but  often  in  uncultivated  fields,  where 
tents  are  erected,  and  where  the  fete  continues  for  several  days,  and  is  attend^ 
by  thousands  of  the  peasantry  of  both  sexes.  The  most  important  of  these 
pardons  are  those  of  Ste.  Anne  d’ Auray,  and  of  Ste.  Anne  de  Palud,  which  last  is 
the  most  picturesque  of  all,  and  takes  place  at  the  seaside.  The  one  repre- 
sented in  M.  Breton’s  picture  is  held  at  Kergoat,  near  Douamenez  and  Quim- 
per.

113  “TITAN’S  GOBLET,  1833.” 

A remarkable  symbolic  painting  by  the  distinguished  American  painter, 
influenced  by  the  Norse  Legend  of  the  Tree  of  Life.  The  rugged  mountains 
catching  the  departing  gleams  of  the  setting  sun  form  the  background  for  a 
gigantic  cup  placed  on  the  projecting  point  of  a rocky  headland  jutting  into  a 
sea,  on  the  shore  of  which  is  seen  an  Eastern  City,  in  the  immediate  foreground 
verdure-clad  cliffs  glowing  in  the  setting  sun,  an  extensive  landscape  spreading 
out  to  the  left.  The  spiritual  idea  in  the  center  of  the  painting  conveying  the 
beautiful  Norse  theory  that  Life  and  the  World  is  but  as  a tree  with  ramifying 
branches,  is  carefully  carried  out  by  the  painter,  the  stem  of  the  goblet  being  a 
massive  tree-trunk,  the  branches  of  which  spread  out  and  hold  between  them 
an  ocean  dotted  \vith  sails,  surrounded  by  dense  forests  and  plains,  in  which 
appear  Greek  ruins  and  a modem  Italian  building,  typical  of  ancient  and 
modern  civilization.  The  painting  has  been  exhibited  at  the  Pennsjdvania 
Academy  of  Fine  Arts,  1842,  and  many  later  exhibitions.

CONSTABLE,  John,  R.A.  English  School. 

Born  at  East  Bergholt,  June  11th,  1776;  died  suddenly,  at  London,  1837. 
His  style  was  very  broad  and  powerful,  and  his  landscapes  are  possessed  of  a 
noble  quality  which  reveals  the  beauty  of  English  cultivated  scenery  in  the 
most  charming  manner,  and  his  landscapes,  in  which  mills,  weirs,  and  dykes 
are  prominent  features,  often  glisten  with  the  early  morning  dew,  or,  wet 
with  rain,  sparkle  in  the  sunlight  bursting  through  the  storm  clouds  in  the 
sky.  He  was  both  vigorous  and  realistic;  strong  in  his  originality,  yet  refined 
ana  cultivated  in  his  mind.  His  pictures  possess  a quality  which  fill  a place 
unoccupied  by  any  other  English  landscape  painter,  and  they  have  done  much 
to  form  the  style  of  the  modern  French  landscape  school. 

252  A LOCK  ON  THE  STOUR. 

An  old  timber  lock,  through  which  a boat  is  passing  from  the  higher  to 
the  lower  level,  occupies  the  middle  foreground  of  the  picture.  In  the  bow  of 
the  boat  one  man  is  tugging  at  a rope,  and  two  other  men  are  engaged  opening 
the  gate  of  the  lock;  on  the  left  the  country  is  flat,  bounded  by  low  hills  which 
encircle  the  church  the  square  tower  of  which  marks  the  place  where  the  village 
stands.  Cumulus  clouds  fill  the  sky,  and  a group  of  old  oaks  with  their  massive 
foliage  shadow  the  canal  which  passes  underneath  their  branches. 

Exhibited  at  the  Royal  Academy  in  1824,  and  sold  on  the  first  day  of  the 
exhibition  for  £157  10s.  It  is  engraved  in  Constable’s  Works,  also  on  wood  in 
Brock-Arnold,  Life  of  Constable,  p.  78.  This  picture  was  in  the  possession  of 
Lucas,  who  engraved  the  22  prints  in  Various  Subjects  of  Landscapes  . . . 

by  John  Constable,  London,  in  1833,  and  was  purchased  from  Alfred  Lucas, 
brother  of  the  engraver.

254  THE  VALLEY  FARM. 

Copy  of  the  picture  in  the  National  Gallery,  London. 

Situated  on  the  bank  of  the  Stour,  and  known  as  “WiUy  Lott’s  House.” 
The  house  occupies  the  center  of  the  picture  and  is  illumined  only  by  a glint  of 
light  which  penetrates  the  group  of  heavy,  dark,  oak  trees  which  overshadow 
the  whole  place.  Some  cows  have  wandered  down  into  the  stream,  and  two 
boats  are  there  containing  figures.  At  the  left  are  some  rocks  and  hea'sy 
timbers  with  brush,  which  border  the  stream  and  lead  on  to  a hill  in  the  middla 
distance.  The  sky  is  filled  with  silvery-gray  clouds.  ‘‘Flatford  Mill,”  the 
property  of  the  painter’s  father  in  East  Bergholt,  Suffolk,  was  near  this  place. 

Constable  painted  this  subject  several  times.  The  one  in  the  National 
Gallery  in  London  was  in  the  Vernon  collection,  and  was  engraved  by  J.  C. 
Bentley.

center  of  the  picture.  Small  trees  rise  above  and  at  the  right  in  the  immediate 
foreground  is  a steep  bank  topped  with  trees  of  larger  growth.  The  placid 
water  clearly  reflects  the  objects  above,  and  the  sky  is  filled  with  silverj--gray 
clouds.

Bertin.  Visited  Italy  in  1826,  and  on  his  return  from  this  first  tour  he  brought

development  of  the  modern  French  School  of  landscape  art.  Corot  was  gifted 
with  a highly  poetical  temperament,  and  rendered  in  the  most  charming  and

ROSSELLI. 

Bom  at  Florence,  1462;  died  there,  1521  (?).  Pupil  of  Cosimo  Rosselli,  but 
was  influenced  by  the  work  of  Filippino  Lippi  and  afterwards  by  the  Milanese 
School.  He  accompanied  Rosselli  to  Rome  when  the  latter  went,  about  1480, 
to  decorate  the  new  Chapel  of  the  Vatican  for  Sixtus  IV.  Cosimo  was  the 
master  of  Andrea  del  Sarto. 

93  RETURNING  FROM  THE  CHASE. 

Clouds  of  smoke  rise  from  the  distant  hills  into  a bright,  luminous  sky 
above;  beneath  is  a lake  or  bay,  upon  the  border  of  which  in  the  immediate 
foreground  are  boats  laden  with  game.  Men  and  women  with  skins  about 
their  loins  are  disembarking  on  the  shore  where  prominently  at  the  right  is  a 
centaur  with  a nude  female  sitting  on  his  back.  Upon  the  branch  of  an  old 
tree  trunk  above,  a man  waves  his  hand  in  welcome  to  those  below,  where  a 
woman  is  springing  from  the  bow  of  a boat,  and  two  others  are  holding  a live 
ape  between  them.  A faun  is  carrying  a deer  ashore  upon  his  back  and  a 
man  at  the  left  is  in  the  act  of  swinging  a boar  from  his  back  to  the  ground. 
In  the  middle  distance  at  the  left,  the  woods  are  on  fire  and  the  hunters  are 
busy  with  their  prey.

ground is  crowded  with  fauns,  satyrs,  men  and  centaurs,  with  huge  knotted 
clubs,  who  are  slaying  the  animals  which  have  been  driven  from  the  thick 
woods  by  fire.  The  fight  is  fierce  to  the  death  and  extends  to  all  parts  of  the 
picture:  at  the  right  lies  the  dead  body  of  a man  with  his  club  beside  him,  and 
near  by  an  animal  has  sprung  from  a tree  and  fastened  his  teeth  in  the  neck  of 
a centaur;  prominently  at  the  left,  two  men  attack  a lion  who  is  biting  a boar, 
and  another  holds  a struggling  bear  in  his  arms;  other  animals  flee  up  the  hiU 
only  to  meet  the  slayers  there.

of  the  chair  as  he  watches  with  a dreamy  expression  two  soap  bubbles  which 
float  in  the  air  before  him.  Relaxation  from  study  is  expressed  in  every  line 
of  the  figure  and  the  hands  which  lie  listlessly  by  his  side,  one  of  which  is  resting 
upon  the  seat  of  the  chair,  the  other  holding  the  straw  with  which  the  bubbles 
were  blown.  On  a table  before  him  are  a spinning  top,  a glass  of  froth,  a

CRAYER  (Craeyer),  Gaspard  de.  Flemish  School. 

Bom  at  Antwerp,  1584;  died  at  Ghent,  1669.  Pupil  of  Raphael  Van 
Coxcyen,  in  Brussels,  a contemporary  of  Rubens,  who,  it  is  said,  admired  his 
works.  He  was  also  the  friend  of  Van  Dyck,  who  painted  his  portrait. 
Crayer’s  pictures  were  mostly  of  biblical  subjects.  His  color  was  subdued,  but 
tmthful;  he  had  a free,  masterly  touch,  and  his  feeling  for  beauty  sometimes 

81 


borders  on  the  ideal.  “ The  Coronation  of  St.  PtOsalie  by  the  Infant  Christ,** 
in  the  Museum  at  Ghent,  is  one  of  his  finest  works;  this  picture  was  carried 
away  by  the  French,  but  returned.  The  “Martyrdom  of  St.  Blasius,”  in  the 
same  museum,  was  his  last  work,  executed  when  he  was  over  eighty  years  old. 
In  the  Munich  Gallery  there  is  an  immense  enthroned  Madonna  -nith  Angels, 
surrounded  by  Saints;  the  lower  figures  are  portraits  of  himself,  his  brother, 
sister,  and  nephew.  Works  of  his  are  also  in  the  Louvre,  Brussels  Gallery,  etc.

CUIJP,  Aelbert,  Dutch  School. 

Born  at  Dortrecht,  1620;  died  there,  1691.  This  highly  gifted  painter 
was  from  early  infancy  associated  with,  and  attracted  by,  the  beauties  of 
graphic  imitation.  His  father,  Jacob  Gerritz  Cuyp,  an  artist  of  no  inconsid- 
erable talent  both  in  portraiture  and  landscape,  was  one  of  the  founders  of  the 
Academy  of  Painting  at  Dort,  and  it  was  from  him  that  Aelbert  received  his 
first  instructions,  and  in  his  early  works  may  be  traced  the  style  of  his  father. 
England  appreciated  and  purchased  his  works  long  before  his  own  country- 
men recognized  his  ability.

DEPARTURE  OF  EMIGRANTS  FROM  HAVRE. 

A steamship  lies  at  the  wharf  where  are  gathered  a multitude  of  emi- 
grants, mostly  of  German  origin,  who  are  about  to  embark  for  a foreign  land. 
In  the  foreground  at  the  right,  among  the  crowd  and  yet  a little  apart,  is  a 
family  group.  The  mother  is  nursing  her  infant,  while  an  older  child,  fast 
asleep,  leans  heavily  against  her  shoulder.  The  father  is  stretched  out  at 
full  length,  with  his  head  resting  upon  his  left  hand;  and  a cloud  of  blue 
smoke  curls  upward  from  a pipe  which  he  is  smoking.  His  son  sits  idly  by, 
gazing  at  his  mother  and  the  infant.  An  older  sister  with  very  blond  hair 
stands  by,  holding  a child  in  her  arms.  In  the  center  of  the  picture  is  an  old

•rt’oman  with  a large  bundle;  her  right  hand  is  extended  to  receive  from  a 
girl  who  sits  at  her  side  a piece  of  bread,  which  has  been  taken  from  a basket. 
Behind  these  stand  three  men  in  conversation,  one  of  whom  with  an  Alsatian 
air  is  smoking  a large  German  pipe.  Sitting  at  the  left  is  a man,  tired  and 
listless,  with  a hat  in  his  right  hand,  and  by  him  is  a young  German  girl  in  a 
tall  hat,  who  holds  with  both  hands  a large  black  bag.  Beyond  are  a mase 
of  people  huddled  together,  and  the  steamer,  broadside  on,  with  its  gang- 
planks out,  receiving  both  human  freight  and  baggage.  The  picture  is 
gray,  colorless,  and  depressing  both  in  subject  and  treatment.

daughter  of  Isaac  of  York.  She  secretly  loves  Ivanhoe  whom  she  cures  of  a 
wound,  and  repulses  at  the  peril  of  her  life  the  criminal  love  of  De  Bois  Guil-

In  the  rear  of  a long  row  of  cottages,  the  red  tiled  roofs  of  which  are  dimly 
seen  through  the  dark  green  trees  and  thick  shrabbery,  is  a garden  overgrown 
with  flowering  plants.  A cluster  of  bright  red  poppies  is  in  the  foreground, 
and  by  a clearing  at  the  left  are  three  hives  of  bees  which  an  old  man  is  showing 
to  a little  girl.  The  sky  is  filled  with  vaporous  clouds.

389  SKIRMISH  BETWEEN  COSSACKS  AND  THE  IMPE- 
RIAL BODY-GUARD,  1814. 

Tearing  down  a muddy  roadway  through  a wood  of  leafless  trees  are  a 
squad  of  brigandish  looking  Cossacks,  pursued  and  overtaken  by  Napoleon’s 
Imperial  Guard,  who  rush  upon  them  with  overwhelming  force,  cutting  right 
and  left  with  their  curved  swords.  The  leader  of  the  Cossack  band,  mounted 
on  a light  horse  loaded  with  plunder,  turns  in  his  saddle  with  a ready  pistol 
raised  to  shoot.  Others  are  scattering  through  the  woods,  and  at  the  left,  one 
has  clutched  a soldier  to  drag  him  off  his  horse.  The  long  spears  of  the  Cos- 
sacks in  a conflict  like  this  are  of  little  use  and  there  is  safety  only  in  flight.

562  THE  DEFENSE  OF  CHAMPIGNY. 

Paeis,  May  29, 1897. 

Mr.  Henry  Hilton. 

My  Dear  Sir  : I have  learned  with  great  pleasure  that  you  have  become 
the  purchaser  of  my  painting,  exhibited  this  year  in  our  Art  Salon,  and  I am 
happy  that  it  finds  a place  in  your  gallery,  which  enjoys  a very  great  reputation 
in  France.  I know  that  I shall  be  “in  good  company”  with  you,  and  it  is  so 
much  the  more  gratifying  to  me,  as  I consider  this  last  painting  the  most  im- 
portant work  I have  ever  produced. 

The  episode  which  I have  chosen  gives  scope  for  a great  development  of 
subject.  It  is  the  moment  when  the  division  of  General  Faron  (now  inspector 
of  Marne),  after  having  taken  Champigny,  situated  above  the  Marne,  fortified 
itself  in  the  village  and  defended,  foot  by  foot,  the  house  and  enclosures  against 
the  return  attack  of  the  Saxony  and  Wiirtemberg  divisions,  in  the  battle  of  2d 
December,  1870.  The  chateau  which  I have  showm  is  one  of  those  which  are 
found  at  the  fork  of  the  two  roads  at  Chennevieres — a place  well  known  to 
those  Parisians  who  took  part  in  the  scenes  of  the  siege  of  Paris.  The  oflficer 

39 


shown  in  the  center  of  the  picture  is  General  Faron,  who  was  appointed  Gen- 
eral of  Divisioa  on  the  field  of  battle.  The  foot  soldiers  belong  to  the  113th 
Regiment  of  the  Line,  who  lost  a great  number  in  the  three  days  of  fight.  The 
Sappers,  who  are  making  the  embrasures  in  the  wall  to  allow  the  sharpshooters 
to  fire  under  protection,  and  are  banicading  the  opening  with  all  kinds  of 
material;  the  artillerists,  who  are  placing  the  battery  guns  in  position:  all  like- 
wise were  under  the  orders  of  General  Faron,  who  at  this  time  commanded  the 
right  wing  of  the  Frencli  anny. 

I have  endeavored  to  portray,  in  the  most  exact  manner  possible,  the  vari- 
ous scenes  of  which  I was  a witness,  having  been  myself  a soldier  in  the 
“Garde  Mobile”  during  the  siege  of  Paris;  and  in  painting  this  work  I have 
liad  the  advantage  of  being  able  to  reproduce  some  souvenirs  absolutely  per- 
sonal. I attach,  therefore,  much  importance  to  this  painting,  and  am  specially 
desirous — outside  of  the  Paris  Exhibition — for  permission  to  exhibit  it  in  Ger- 
many,where  I have  been  very  particularly  solicited  to  show  my  militaiy  wor^. 

I particularly  desire  to  be  represented  at  this  international  gathering,  and 
I have  selected  naturally  this  my  most  important  work.  It  is  the  first  time 
since  the  war  of  1870  that  French  art  has  been  exliibited  in  Germany,  and  the 
presence  of  nilitary  paintings  recalling  souvenirs  of  the  late  war  ^-ill  add  a 
peculiar  piquancy. 

I have  always  been  very  sensible  of  the  favors  shown  me  in  America,  and 
I am  happy  to  be  able  to  testify  this  to  you  especially. 

Receive,  sir,  the  expression  of  my  distinguished  regards,  etc.

was  one  of  those  who  gave  celebrity  to  the  village  of  Barbizon,  in  the  forest  of 
Fontainebleau.  Anything  served  him  as  a pretext  for  bringing  to  light  his 
marvelous  aptitude  as  a colorist.  He  rendered  -with  equal  facility  the  enchant- 
ments of  the  landscape  flooded  with  sunshine,  and  the  deep  forest  in  luminous 
twilight,  or  nymplis  with  flesh  of  exquisite  tone;  and  dazzled  the  eye  with  all 
the  seductions  of  a grand  colorist.  Medals:  third  class,  1844;  second  class.

Everdingen,  Ostade,  Poelemberg,  Heinrich  Roos  and  Salvator  Rosa.  He 
had  no  originality,  and  his  color  and  execution  were  subject  to  much  criti-

in  1855  his  first  oil  picture,  “Battle  of  the  Alma,”  which  was  followed  in  1857 
by  the  “Battle  of  Inkerman.”  The  great  wealth  of  his  imagination,  and

Born  at  Nantes,  1811;  died  at  LTsle-Adam,  1889.  One  of  the  most  original 
and  powerful  painters  of  the  modern  French  School.  At  twelve  years  of  age  he 
was  the  principal  decorator  in  his  father’s  porcelain  factory  on  the  banks  of  the 
Oise,  “It  was  in  the  contemplation  of  nature,  in  his  isolation  amidst  her 

43 


influences,  that  the  mind  of  the  lad  waa  opened  to  her  beauty,  and  that  her 
mystery  was  sounded  by  his  thought.  In  his  hours  of  freedom  the  boy  used 
to  wander  over  the  fields  with  sketch-book  and  pencil.  No  professor  inter- 
posed himself  between  this  talent  in  its  birth  and  what  it  portrayed.  Wiiat 
he  was  ignorant  of  he  asked  but  of  her;  what  he  learned  was  from  her  teaching. 
At  eighteen  the  little  china  painter  had  become  a young  master.  At  sixty,  he 
was  the  illustrious,  respected,  veteran  of  the  School  of  18.30 — Delacroix,  Rous- 
seau, Diaz,  Corot,  Barye,  Millet,  Decamps,  and  Troyon.”  Medals:  second

682  THE  BALLOON. 

In  a bright  green  field  of  new-mown  hay  are  a group  of  French  peasants 
who  have  suddenly  ceased  work  and  are  gazing  intently  at  a balloon  which  is 
floating  along  in  a midday  sky.  All  have  their  backs  to  the  spectator.  One 
stalwart  woman  with  a rake  in  her  hands  stands  in  the  center  of  the  picture. 
At  the  right,  is  an  old  woman  with  a red  kerchief  on  her  head  and  a boy  is 
in  the  grass  at  her  feet.  Standing  by  the  boy  is  an  old  man  with  a straw 
hat  upon  his  head  and  further  on  is  a young  girl.  At  the  left,  a man  on  his 
knees  in  the  grass  with  his  arms  full  of  the  new-mown  hay  is  looking  up  at 
the  novel  sight.  There  are  a few  tall  trees  scattered  about  and  a hill  borders 
the  fields  at  the  right.

DURAND,  Asher  Brown.  American  School. 

Born  at  South  Orange,  N.  J.,  August  21,  1796;  died  there,  1886.  He 
studied  engraving  with  his  father  and  with  Peter  Maverick,  whose  partner 
he  became  in  1817.  His  “Declaration  of  Independence,”  after  Trumbull, 
first  brought  him  into  prominent  notice  as  an  engraver.  He  was  one  of  the 
original  members  of  the  National  Academy  of  Design,  organized  in  1826, 
and  was  elected  president  at  the  resignation  of  Professor  Morse  in  1845,  a 
position  he  held  until  1861.  About  1835  he  resolved  to  become  a painter, 
and  until  the  time  of  his  death  devoted  himself  to  that  branch  of  the  pro- 
fession. Among  the  better  known  of  his  earlier  works  are:  “Harvey  Birch 
and  Washington,”  “The  Wrath  of  Peter  Stuyvesant,”  “The  Capture  of 
Andre,”  “Dance  on  the  Battery,”  “The  Forest  Primeval,”  and  “Franconia 
Mountains.” 

Many  of  his  pictures  have  been  engraved. 

170  ARIADNE  (after  Vanderlyn). 

Lying  at  full  length,  nude,  in  the  broad  light  of  day,  with  white  and 
red  drapery  on  the  ground  beneath,  Ariadne  sleeps.  The  dark  brown,  woody 
landscape  and  open  sea  beyond  give  no  sign  of  her  truant  lover,  Theseus. 
The  original  picture  is  life-size,  and  is  now  in  the  Pennsylvania  Academy 
of  Fine  Arts,  Philadelphia.

in  storm  clouds  and  the  forked  lightning  is  splitting  the  rocks  asunder. 
Ezekiel,  39th  chapter,  fourth  verse:  “Thou  shall  fall  upon  the  mountains  of 
Israel,  thou,  and  all  thy  bands,  and  the  people  that  is  with  thee;  I will  give 
thee  unto  the  ravenous  birds  of  every  sort,  and  to  the  beasts  of  the  field  to 
be  devoured.”

DURER,  Albrecht  (?).  German  School. 

Bom  at  Nuremberg,  1471;  died  there,  1528.  This  artist,  if  not  really 
the  founder  of  the  German  school,  perfected  the  art  which  already  existed 
in  his  country.  He  was  a sculptor,  architect,  and  painter.  His  drawing 

45 


was  rich  in  life  and  expression;  his  coloring  very  unequal;  his  nude  figures 
vulgar,  and  his  love  for  the  fantastic  prevented  him  from  becoming 
what  he  might  otherwise  have  been.  He  became  a disciple  of  Michael  Wolge- 
muth,  in  whose  atelier  he  remained  three  years.  In  1490  he  set  3ut  on  his 
travels,  and  in  1494  reriirned  to  Nuremberg  and  settled  himself  as  a painter. 
He  remained  there  'en  years.  In  1505  he  went  to  Venice,  Padua  and  Bo- 
logna. The  following  year  he  returned  to  Nuremberg,  where  he  remained  till 
1520,  and  executed  an  immense  number  of  paintings,  drawings,  engravings, 
and  some  carved  works  in  boxwood  and  steatite.  He  then  made  a journey 
into  the  Netherlands,  was  absent  about  a year,  and  returned  to  his  native 
city,  never  to  leave  it  again.  Although  his  pictures  are  scarce,  the  large  Ger- 
man Galleries  have  specimens  of  his  work.  “The  Four  Temperaments”  are 
now  in  the  Pinakothek  at  Munich,  this  Gallery  has  also  five  large  pictures 
of  the  life  of  Christ.  The  Virgin  holding  the  naked  Child  in  her  arms  is  now 
in  the  Belvedere  at  Vienna.  These  are  but  a small  part  of  the  important 
fl'orks  of  Durer;  the  Berlin  Gallery  has  several,  and  the  Dresden  GaUery  four.

DIJCK,  Sir  Anthony  (Antoon)  van.  Flemish  School. 

Born  at  Antwerp,  1599;  died  at  London,  1641.  The  most  distinguished 
of  Rubens’  pupils.  One  of  the  many  great  artists  whose  gifts  showed  them- 
selves almost  from  birth.  He  was  the  son  of  a glass  painter.  At  ten  he  had 
already  begun  to  paint;  at  fifteen  he  had  entered  Rubens’  studio;  and  at 
nineteen  he  was  himself  a “master.” 

For  five  years  (1620-25)  he  was  traveling  and  paintiag  in  Italy,  with 
letters  of  introduction  from  Rubens,  and  on  his  return  to  Antwerp  he  at  once 
became  the  court  painter  of  his  time.  Queens  visited  him  in  his  studio,  and 
the  nobility  of  three  nations  considered  it  an  honor  to  be  painted  by  him. 

He  twice  visited  London,  in  1620  and  in  1627,  before  he  finally  settled 
there  in  1632. 


46 


On  his  first  presentation  to  Charles  1,  he  obtained  permission  to  paint 
the  king  and  queen.  He  was  appointed  painter  to  the  eourt,  was  knighted, 
and  received  a pension  of  £200.  A town  house  was  given  him  at  Black- 
friars  and  a country  house  at  Eltham. 

He  always  went  magnificently  dressed,  had  a numerous  and  gallant 
equipage,  and  kept  so  good  a table  in  his  apartment  that  few  princes  were 
more  visited  or  better  served. 

For  seven  years  Van  Dyck  worked  at  the  portraits  of  the  English  aris- 
tocracy with  indefatigable  industry.  Nearly  half  of  all  his  known  pictures 
are  in  England  (a  large  collection  of  them  was  brought  together  at  the  Gros- 
venor  Gallery  in  1887),  but  in  the  National  Gallery  he  is  at  present  incom- 
pletely represented.  There  are  no  pictures  there  either  of  women  or  of  children 
in  both  of  which  he  excelled. 

The  last  two  years  of  his  life  were  mainly  spent  in  traveling  with  his 
young  wife,  the  granddaughter  of  Lord  Ruthven.  He  died  when  only  forty- 
two,  and  was  buried  in  the  old  Church  of  St.  Paul’s. 

Van  Dyck  was  essentially  the  painter  of  princes,  distinguished  by  the 
indelible  mark  of  courtly  grace  and  refinement  which  he  gave  to  all  his  sitters. 

46  ST.  MARTHA  INTERCEDING  WITH  GOD  FOR  A CES- 
SATION OF  THE  PLAGUE  AT  TARASCON.

head,  and  face  upturned  and  arms  extended  downwards  in  an  attitude  of 
supplication  is  being  upborn  on  a white  cloud  by  a group  of  cherubs.  At 
the  extreme  left,  one  of  these  bearing  a death’s  head  in  his  hands,  and  another 
clasping  his  nostrils,  represents  the  plague.  A third  is  lifting  the  mantle 
calling  the  attention  of  the  Saint  to  the  distress  below.  At  the  left  hand 
upper  corner  another  cherub  is  seen  crowning  the  Saint  with  a wreath  of 
roses.  Beneath  the  group  far  away  under  the  horizon  are  vapory  indica- 
tions of  the  plague  stricken  city.  An  early  work  painted  under  Venetian  in- 
fluence.

EYCK,  Jan  van.  (?)  Flemish  School. 

Bom  at  Maeseyck,  Eyck-sur-Meuse  1.380  to  1390(?);  died  at  Bmges, 
1440.  The  brothers  Hubert  and  Jan  van  Eyck  are  distinguished  as  being 
the  inventors  (or  improvers)  of  Oil  Painting.  The  chief  credit  is  usually 
given  to  Jan,  but  probably  Hubert  has  the  better  claim.  Jan  was  by  24  years 
the  younger  of  the  two.  They  resided  chiefly  at  Ghent  and  Bmges. 

262  VIRGIN  AND  CHILD. 

The  Virgin,  dressed  in  a long  scarlet  robe,  stands  in  a niche  of  richly 
sculptured  gothic  architecture,  looking  tenderly  down  upon  the  Child  which 
she  holds  against  her  breast.  On  a baldachin  over  her  head  is  inscribed, 
“DOMES  DEI  EST _J:T  PORTA  OTLl;”  beneath  is  “IPSA  EST  QUAM 
PREPARAVIT  DOMS  FILIO  DNI  MEI.”  King  of  Holland  sale,  1850. 
Exhibited  at  Manchester,  1857,  and  at  the  Royal  Academy  in  1871,  by  A.  J. 
Beresford  Hope.  Described  in  Waagen  Art  Treasures,  IV,  190. 

The  figures  of  the  Virgin  and  Child  are  copied  from  a simed  picture  by  Jau  van  Eyck,  the 
“Virgin  by  a Fountain,”  at  Antwerp.  The  architectural  background  is  similar  to  that  in  one 
of  Hubert  van  Eyck’s  miniatures  at  Turin  (now  destroyed).  Everything,  therefore,  points  to 
the  picture  being  done  in  Jan  van  Eyck’s  studio  by  a close  follower.

GHIRLANDAJO  (in  Florentine  dialect,  Grillandajo)  ? (Rea! 
name,  Domenico  di  Tommaso  Curradi  di  Doffo  Bigordi.) 

Florentine  School. 

Born  at  Florence,  1449;  died  there,  1494.  It  is  said  that  his  rr:t’:er 
■was  a goldsmith,  who  made  such  exquisite  garlands  for  the  hair  that  he 
was  called  Ghirlandajo  (the  garland-tviner),  which  name  descended  to  his 
children.  Vasari  says  he  studied  under  Fra  Bartolommeo.  He  became  a 
mosaic-worker  and  celebrated  painter.  He  introduced  in  his  picture  the  por- 

58 


traits  of  celebrated  and  important  personages  of  his  time,  and  was  original  in 
many  ways.  His  life  is  a landmark  in  the  history  of  Florentine  art.  In  the 
technicalities  of  fresco  painting  he  excelled.  His  works  are  highly  finished, 
and  may  be  seen  in  the  Louvre;  six  pictures  in  the  Berlin  Museum,  and  others 
in  the  Dresden,  Munich  and  National  Galleries.  Ghirlandajo  was  the  master 
of  Michelangelo.

GOYA  Y LUCIENTES,  Francisco  Jose  de.  Spanish  School. 

Born  at  Fuendetodos  (Aragon)  1746;  died  at  Bordeaux  1828.  Studied 
first  under  Jos6  Luxan  Martinez  and,  after,  some  years  in  Rome.  In  1774  re- 
turned to  Spain  and  settled  in  Madrid.  Painted  pictures  of  religious  subjects 
and  portraits,  and  found  continual  employment  among  the  nobility;  but  his 
chief  excellence  was  that  of  a satirist  with  the  pencil.  He  may  be  called  the 
Hogarth  in  Spain.  He  parodied  the  religious  pictures  and  painted  priests  in 
the  fonn  of  asses  and  apes,  and  was  never  weary  of  making  the  Hierosnymite 
and  Franciscan  friars  ridiculous.  He  painted  with  dashing  boldness,  some- 
times executing  an  entire  piece  with  his  palette  knife  and  put  in  the  delicate 
touches  of  sentiment  with  his  thumb.

School. 

Born  in  Greece  (or  at  Venice  of  Greek  parents  ?)  about  1548 ; died  at 
Toledo,  1625.  Real  name  Domenico  Theotocopuli  (Teoscopoli) ; sumamed 
in  Venice,  where  he  is  said  to  have  studied  in  the  school  of  Titian,  II  Greco 
(The  Greek).  In  Spain  he  was  called  El  Greco.  Settled  in  Toledo  about 
1577,  and  became  known  by  an  altarpiece,  “ The  Stripping  of  Christ  before 
Crucifixion,”  in  the  sacristy  of  the  cathedral,  quite  in  Titian’s  style.  Called 
to  Madrid  to  paint  at  the  Escorial  by  Philip  H.  His  best  work  is  the  “Burial

GREUZE,  Jean-Baptiste.  French  School. 

Bom  at  Tournus,  near  Macon,  August  21,  1725;  died  at  the  Louvre,  in 
Paris,  March  21,  1805.  Genre  and  portrait  painter.  Pupil  at  Lyons  of 
Gromdon;  he  studied  afterwards  in  the  Academy  at  Paris  and  at  Rome.  His 
first  picture,  “ A Father  Explaining  the  Bible  to  His  Children,”  seemed  to 
exceed  anything  that  was  expected  of  Greuze.  He  was  elected  an  agree  or 
Associate  of  the  French  Academy  of  Painting,  in  1755,  when  his  picture, 
“L’Avengle  trompe,”  was  exhibited,  and  in  the  same  year  he  went  to  Italy 
with  the  Abbe  Gougenot.  In  1761  his  “ L’Accordee  de  Village'’  (Louvre) 
excited  the  greatest  enthusiasm.  Angry  at  being  received  into  the  Academy 
(1769)  as  a genre  and  not  as  a history  painter,  Greuze  retired  for  a time  to 
Anjou  whence  he  returned  to  exhibit  pictures  which  attracted  all  Paris.  Ex- 
hibited at  the  Salons  of  1755,  1757,  1759,  1761,  1763,  1765,  1769,  1800,  1801, 
1804.  He  amassed  a large  fortune,  but  lost  it  during  the  Revolution.  Neg- 
lected by  the  public,  which  admired  only  the  new  school  of  David,  Greuze  passed 
his  last  years  in  misery  and  regret.  His  wife,  who  was  Mile.  Barbuty,  whose 
charming  face  appears  in  so  many  of  his  pictures,  was  an  extravagant  and 
worthless  woman,  from  whom  he  was  separated  long  before  his  death.

They  are  spirited  and  lifelike,  have  countless  figures,  gondolas,  etc.,  all  of 
which  show  a freedom  of  execution;  while  his  sharp  touches  of  light  and 
bright  colors  give  spirit  and  sparkling  effect.

HALS,  Frans  (The  Elder),  uuicn  esenoix. 

Bom  at  Antwerp  (?)  1584  (?),  (exact  date  not  known);  buried  at  Haarlem, 
1st  of  September,  1666  (confirmed  by  Dr.  Bredius,  July,  1907).  Pupil  of  Carel 
(Karl)  Van  Mander.  One  of  the  merriest  and  brightest-witted  of  all  the  Dutch 
portrait  painters.  He  was  the  founder  of  a National  style,  and  was  one  of  the 
greatest  masters  in  portraiture  of  his  own  or  of  any  time.  Of  the  host  of  dis- 
tinguished painters  in  that  branch  of  art  who  practised  in  the  Netherlands  in 

A5 


the  first  half  of  the  XVII  century,  he  stands  forth  as  the  first — Rembrandt  onij 
exceptec  His  unusual  talent  excited  the  admiration  of  Van  Dijck.  He  '^’as 
twice  married,  and  left  four  sons,  all  painters.  He  led  an  irregular  and  improvi- 
dent life,  but  he  left  as  a legacy  to  the  world  an  imperishable  name.  His  flesh 
coloring  is  vital;  handling  broad,  masterly,  and  vigorous.  He  painted  large  pic- 
tures of  archers  and  civic  guards.  The  best  of  these  may  be  ocen  at  Haarlem 
ivi  the  H6tel-de-ViUe.  In  an  apartment  of  the  Oude  Man  Huys,  a benevolent

pupil  of  Acliard  for  two  years  ; studied  in  Italy  two  years.  On  his  return 
to  France  he  became  one  amongst  a set  of  men  devoted  to  the  cult  of  a new 
kind  of  b»auty,  and  to  the  revivication  of  the  elements  of  pictorial  style.  After 
his  first  visit  to  Rome  in  1850,  his  manner  became  stronger,  more  individual; 
ot  later  years  his  pictures  are  imbued  with  an  increasing  poetical  feeling. 
Considered  the  greatest  landscape  painter  in  w^ater  colors.  He  first  attracted 
attention  by  his  “La  lisiere  de  bois  sur  les  bords  de  I’Ailier,”  in  1861;  which

HAYDON,  Benjamin  Robert.  English  School. 

Born  at  Plymouth,  1786;  died  at  London,  1846.  Student  at  the  Royal 
Academy  in  1805;  exhibited  in  1800  his  “Dentatus  Murdered  by  His  Own 
Soldiers,”  but,  dissatisfied  with  the  position  assigned  it,  refused  to  contrib- 
ute any  more.  After  painting  portraits  in  Plymouth,  he  won  a considerable 
reputation  in  1814  by  his  “Judgment  of  Solomon.”  In  1820  he  produced 
‘Christ’s  Triumphant  Entry  into  Jerusalem,”  the  exhibition  of  which,  in 
London,  brought  him  three  thousand  guineas;  but  it  procured  him  no  com- 
nissions,  and  was  finally  sold  for  two  hundred  and  forty  pounds  and  sent 
JO  America.  It  is  now  in  Cincinnati.  Though  in  great  pecuniary  difficulties, 
and  several  times  in  the  debtors’  prison,  he  still  clung  to  the  belief  that  he 
was  the  great  historical  painter  o the  age,  and  that  in  time  his  efforts  would 
be  appreciated.  But  he  was  at  last  overwhelmed  by  his  disappointments 
and  troubles  and  committed  suicide.  Haydon’s  lectures  on  Paintings  were 
published  in  1844-46,  and  his  life,  from  his  autobiography  and  journals, 
edited  and  compiled  by  Tom  Taylor,  in  1853.

over  five  years.  He  made  a journey  through  Sweden,  Xons’ay,  and  Goth- 
land, on  foot,  filling  his  sketch-book  with  materials  for  future  use.  He 
then  visited  Paris  and  the  principal  cities  of  Germany,  settling  down  at 
Munich  as  the  pupil  of  Wilhelm  Diez.  Returning  to  Paris,  he  painted  im- 
portant works  -which  were  exhibited  at  the  Munich  International  Exhibition 
of  1879.  In  all  of  his  historical  and  genre  pictures  he  adhered  to  the  style 
and  mannerisms  illustrated  in  the  example  of  his  work  here  exhibited.

638  PETER  SONNAVATER  AND  MASTER  KNUTS  OP- 
PROBRIOUS ENTRY  INTO  STOCKHOLM,  IN  1528. 

(These  two  Swedish  Bishops  had  sought  refuge  after  their  unsuccessful 
rebellion  in  Delame,  against  Gustavus  I,  with  the  Archbishop  Olaf,  in  Tron- 
heim;  but  the  latter  treacherously  betrayed  them  to  the  King’s  servants, 
who,  dressing  them  in  rags,  and  putting  a crown  of  straw  on  Sonniivater’n 
head,  and  a mitre  of  birch-bark  on  Knut’s,  mounted  them  on  starving  horse% 
and  brought  them  through  Upsala  to  Stockholm  in  a Shrove-tide  procession » 
amidst  jeers  and  insults.  They  were  led  to  the  market-place,  anrl^  afte» 
drinking  to  the  executioner’s  health,  were  broken  on  the  wheel).  Dared,  1870

HELST,  Bartholomeus  van  der.  Dutch  School. 

Born  at  Haarlem,  1613;  died  at  Amsterdam,  1670.  One  of  the  most 
renowned  Dutch  portrait  painters.  Sir  Joshua  Reynolds  said  of  his  picture 
painted  to  celebrate  the  peace  of  Westphalia,  and  representing  an  Archery 
Festival,  "This  is,  perhaps,  the  first  picture  of  portraits  in  the  woria,  com- 
prehending more  of  those  qualities  which  make  a perfect  portrait  man  any 
other  I have  ever  seen.’’  His  principal  works  are  in  the  Gallery  ana  I'n  the 
new  Hotel-de-Ville,  at  Amsterdam.  In  the  Louvre,  is  a small  replica  of  one 
of  his  finest  works,  and  is  considered  superior  to  the  large  picture,  which  is 
in  Amsterdam.

HOGARTH,  \Villiam.  English  School. 

Born  at  London,  1697 ; died  there,  1764.  He  was  apprenticed  at  an 
early  age  to  a silver  plate  engraver,  and  when  twenty-three  years  old  set 
up  in  business  on  his  own  account.  Amongst  other  works  of  the  kind  he 
engraved  twelve  plates  for  Butler’s  “Hudibras.”  He  entered  the  school  of 
Sir  James  Thornhill,  Serjeant-painter  to  the  king,  whose  daughter  lie  married 
clandestinely  in  1729.  The  w'ork  which  first  established  his  fame  was  the 
series  of  the  “Harlot’s  Progress,”  which  was  immediately  foUowed  by  the 
“Rake’s  Progress,”  now  in  the  Soane  Museum.  These  works  are  similar  in 
scope  and  design  to  the  “Marriage  a la  Mode”  series  purchased  from  the 
Angerstein  collection  by  the  National  Gallerj^  London,  1824.  The  engrav-

HOLBEIN,  Hans  (the  Younger).  (?)  German  School. 

Born  at  Augsburg,  probably  in  the  year  1497;  died  at  London.  1543. 

A drawing  of  the  year  1509  is  the  earliest  knotvn  work  of  this  paintei. 
He  was  instructed  by  his  father.  About  1516  he  removed  to  Basle.  The 

74 


works  which  have  been  ascribed  to  him  in  that  city  are  inniunerable.  In 
1517  he  was  called  to  Lucerne  to  decorate  a house,  which  was  still  in  existence 
in  1824;  in  1519  he  entered  the  Guild  of  Painters  at  Basle,  and  formed  his 
friendship  with  Boniface  Amerbach.  Holbein’s  portrait  of  this  friend  is  one 
of  his  very  best;  the  “ Fountain  of  Life,”  now  at  Lisbon,  in  the  palace  of  the 
King  of  Portugal,  was  also  painted  this  year.  In  1521  he  decorated  the 
Rathaiis  or  Town  Hall.  It  was  at  this  time  that  he  painted  a portrait  of 
Erasmus;  a life-size  picture  of  “Christ  lying  in  the  Tomb,”  and  “Holbein’s 
wife  and  children,”  representing  Franz,  the  son  of  the  widow  Schmid,  whom 
he  married,  and  his  own  son  Philip.  The  mother  is  a coarse-looking,  un- 
attractive woman.  It  is  said  that  Holbein  was  driven  from  Basle  by  his 
wife’s  temper,  but  that  he  contributed  to  her  support  at  all  times. 

His  “Madonna,”  at  Darmstadt  (the  better  known  copy  of  which  is  at 
Dresden),  is  one  of  the  great  religious  pictures  of  the  world.  Soon  after  its 
completion  Holbein  went  to  England,  bearing  a letter  of  introduction  from 
Erasmus  to  Sir  Thomas  More,  who  at  once  received  him  with  kindness. 
1527  was  the  year  in  which  Henry  VIII  fell  in  love  with  Anne  Boleyn.  This 
was  the  first  year  of  Holbein’s  occupation  in  England,  but  he  does  not  appear 
to  have  entered  the  King’s  service  until  after  1530.  In  the  meantime  he 
painted  Sir  Thomas  More’s  family  and  friends,  among  them.  Archbishop 
Warham  and  Sir  Henry  Gilford  both  fine  and  important  pictures.  In  1528 
he  painted  Sir  Thomas  and  John  Godsalve,  on  the  same  panel,  now  at  Dresden; 
and  the  astronomer,  Kratzer,  now  in  the  Louvre.  Holbein  returned  to 
Basle  in  1530,  and  completed  the  frescos  in  the  Town  House.  This  being 
done,  he  returned  to  England.  The  superb  portrait  of  George  Gyzen,  at 
Berlin,  was  painted  in  1532.  After  1533  Holbein  rarely  dated  his  pictures, 
and  there  is  no  authentic  portrait  by  him  of  Anne  Boleyn,  or  her  daughter, 
the  Princess  Elizabeth,  although  Holbein  painted  many  portraits  of  the 
Royal  family. 

231  PORTRAIT  OF  ARCHBISHOP  CRANMER. 

Wearing  a long  forked  beard,  and  clad  in  a black  fur-trimmed  gown, 
with  a black  cap  on  his  head,  he  is  standing  behind  a table  covered  with 
green  cloth,  on  which  are  an  hour  glass,  a book,  and  a sheet  of  paper  on  which 
is  inscribed  in  finely  formed  characters  the  Latin  version  of  the  fifth  chapter 
of  2d  Corinthians.  On  the  seal  is  a coat-of-arms,  with  a Bishop’s  or  Arch- 
bishop’s crozier;  behind  it,  the  armorial  bearings,  although  somewhat  indis- 
tinct from  the  small  size  of  the  seal,  are  obviously  those  of  Cranmer,  impaling 
the  Episcopal  Arms  of  the  See  of  Canterbury.  The  date,  1539,  is  painted 
in  the  left-hand  lower  corner  of  the  picture.  From  the  collection  of  Mr. 
Jesse  of  Bathofarn  Park,  Ruthin,  North  Wales.

HONDIUS,  Abraham.  Dutch  School. 

Bom  at  Rotterdam,  before  1038;  died  at  London,  160.5.  He  lived  manj 
years  in  England.  His  favorite  subjects  were  dogs.  He  acquired  a good 
reputation,  but  his  pictures  are  open  to  grave  criticism.  His  drawing  is 
incorrect,  and  his  color  not  pleasing.  His  very  rare  etchings  do  him  more 
honor  as  an  artist  than  his  paintings. 

85  WILD  BOAR  HUNTING. 

Beneath  a clear  sky  in  a thickly  wooded  landscape  a wild  boar  at  the 
end  of  the  chase  is  making  its  last  effort  to  escape.  The  huntsmen,  one 
mounted,  the  other  afoot,  are  urging  the  pack  of  hounds  which  surround 
their  victim  to  complete  their  task;  two  of  the  hounds  have  been  killed  and 
lie  dead  at  the  feet  of  the  boar.

HOOCH  (Hoogh),  Pieter  de.  Dutch  School. 

Born  at  Utrecht,  1630;  died  at  Amsterdam,  probably  shortly  after  1677. 
Genre  painter.  Formed  himself  under  the  influence  of  Karel  Fabritius  and 
Rembrandt.  Worked  at  Delft,  where  he  entered  the  Guild  in  1655,  perhaps 
alao  at  Haarlem. 

One  of  the  most  original  artists  of  the  Dutch  School.  He  painted  cotjrt- 
yard  scenes  and  interiors  with  figures;  in  the  latter  he  usually  represented 
two  rooms,  one  of  which  was  flooded  with  sunlight:  in  these  effects  he  u

HOOGSTRATEN,  Samuel  van.  Dutch  School. 

Bom  at  Dordrecht,  1627;  died  there,  1678.  He  was  a pupil  of  his  father, 
Theodore  van  Hoogstraaten,  and  afterv'ards  of  Rembrandt,  at  Amsterdam. 
He  occasionally  painted  landscapes  and  stiU-life,  but  his  greatest  successes 
were  in  portraits,  which  he  at  first  executed  in  the  dark  and  vigorous  style 
of  Rembrandt,  but  afterwards  changed  to  a more  clear  and  agreeable  manner, 
much  to  the  advantage  of  his  immediate  popularity,  but  not  of  his  pemianent 
fame.

right  hand  resting  on  the  table  holds  a string  of  pearls;  head  uncovered, 
hair  light  brown,  with  close  cut  beard.  The  lady  is  seen  in  front  view,  wearing

Bora  at  Antwerp,  1714;  died  after  1790.  There  were  two  artists  by 
this  name,  father  and  son.  They  painted  similar  subjects,  conversation 
pieces.  The  characters  in  the  pictures  of  the  father  were  usually  peasants, 
while  those  of  the  son  were  from  the  higher  walks  of  life.  Their  works  are 
not  uncommon  in  England,  and  are  in  the  Antwerp  Museum,  and  the  Cassel

HOVENDEN,  Thomas.  American  School. 

Born  at  Dunmanway,  County  Cork,  Ireland,  December  28,  1840;  died, 
1895.  Studied  in  the  Cork  School  of  Design.  Came  to  New  York  in  1863, 
and  entered  the  school  of  the  N.A.D.  In  1874  went  to  Paris,  where  he 
studied  under  Cabanel,  returning  to  the  United  States  in  1880.  Elected 
A.N.A.  1881;  N.A.  in  1882.  He  was  also  a member  of  the  Philadelphia 
Society  of  Artists,  American  Water  Color,  American  Artists’  Societies,  and 
the  Artists’  Fund.  Mr.  Hovenden  was  run  over  and  instantly  killed  by  a 
railway  train  while  he  was  endeavoring  to  save  a child,  at  the  town  of  Ply' 
mouth  Meeting,  Pa.,  where  he  lived. 

1 93  LAST  MOMENTS  OF  JOHN  BROWN. 

A distinguished  champion  of  liberty;  born  at  Torrington,  Conn.,  in  May, 
1800.  His  father  removed  to  Ohio  in  1805.  From  the  age  of  fifteen  to  twenty 
he  worked  at  the  trade  of  tanner  and  currier.  According  to  Redpath,  he  con- 
ceived in  1839  the  idea  of  becoming  a liberator  of  the  Southern  slaves.  He 
was  a devout  member  of  the  Congregational  Church,  and  a man  of  strict  moral 
character,  unflinching  courage,  and  intense  earnestness.  He  emigrated  to 
Kansas  in  1855,  where  he  took  an  active  part  in  the  contest  with  the  pro- 
slavery party.  In  August,  1856,  he  gained  some  advantages  at  Ossawatomie 
over  a band  of  Missourians  who  had  invaded  Kansas,  and  were  ten  times  more 
numerous  than  his  own  company.  In  May,  1859,  he  called  a secret  convention 
of  the  friends  of  freedom,  which  met  at  Chatham,  in  Canada,  organized  an 
invasion  of  Virginia  for  the  purpose  of  liberating  the  slaves,  and  adopted  a con- 
stitution. In  the  following  July  he  rented  a farmhouse  about  six  miles  from 
Harper’s  Ferry,  and  collected  there  a supply  of  pikes,  guns,  etc.  On  the  night 
of  October  16,  1859,  aided  by  about  twenty  men,  he  surprised  Harper’s  Ferry, 
seized  the  arsenal  and  armory,  and  took  over  forty  prisoners.  About  noon  on 
the  17th  the  party  of  Brown  was  attacked  by  the  Virginia  militia.  After  two 
of  his  sons  and  nearly  all  of  his  men  had  been  killed,  and  he  himself  had  been 
wounded  in  several  places,  he  was  captured.  “Enemies  and  friends,”  says 
Redpath,  “were  equally  amazed  at  the  carriage  and  sayings  of  the  wounded 
warrior.”  He  was  tried  in  November,  and  hung  at  Charlestown,  Virginia,  on 
the  2d  of  December,  1859.  He  met  his  death  with  serene  composure.  He  was 
twice  married,  and  had  twenty  children.

573  “JERUSALEM  THE  GOLDEN." 

(Inspired  by  St.  Bernard’s  great  hymn.) 

The  light  from  a lamp  standing  on  a table  falls,  full  upon  the  face  and 
figure  of  a convalescent  young  lady  who,  dressed  in  light  fabrics,  reclines  in 
a large  armchair  upholstered  with  red  tapestry.  Her  right  hand  is  upon 
the  arm  of  the  chair,  and  the  other  which  holds  a handkerchief,  rests  upon 
a table  at  the  left.  A young  man  sits  by  her  side  with  folded  hands  listening 
to  the  hymn  “Jerusalem  the  Golden,”  which  a young  lady  who  is  sitting  in 
deep  shadow  at  the  right  is  playing  upon  the  piano.

HUBNER,  Karl  ^A^ilhelm.  Dusseldorf  School. 

Born  at  Konigsberg,  1814;  died  at  Diisseldorf,  1879.  Pupil  in  Konigs- 
berg,  of  I.  Wolf,  and  from  1839-41,  at  Dusseldorf  Academy,  under  Sohn

79 


the  social  problems  of  the  day.  Member  of  the  Amsterdam  and  Philadelphia 
Academies.  Visited  America  in  1874r-75.  He  was  one  of  the  most  active

1848,  of  the  Malkasten,  to  which  he  gave  his  name. 

629  THE  POACHER'S  DEATH. 

The  wounded  poacher  and  his  son  are  in  the  immediate  foreground 
making  a superhuman  effort  to  reach  their  cabin  which  is  built  in  the  side 
of  a limestone  ledge.  The  terrified  son  with  his  right  arm  supporting  his 
father  and  his  left  extended  to  the  latch  of  the  door  is  straining  everj’^  nerve 
and  muscle  to  drag  his  father  to  safety;  but  the  waning  strength,  pallid  face 
and  glassy  eyes  denote  a fatal  wound.  The  father  presses  his  right  hand 
to  the  back  of  his  neck  where  the  bullet  entered,  and  with  his  left  giasps  the 
shoulder  of  his  son  for  support.  Upon  a white  horse,  at  the  edge  of  the 
wood,  with  the  game-keeper  who  fired  the  fatal  shot,  is  the  lord  of  the  estate. 
A large  hound  is  springing  up  in  a field  of  ripe  grain,  and  nearby  lie  a dead 
boar  and  the  poacher’s  gun.

Thomas  Wijck,  but  especially  under  Van  der  Meulen  at  Paris.  Visited  Rome 
and  returned  to  Holland  in  1670.  He  painted  landscapes,  hunts,  and  battle 
pieces.  The  latter  are  his  best  works.  About  1708  he  received  commissions 
from  Duke  Eugene  de  Savoie,  and  an  excellent  picture  of  Hendrik  Casimir  II, 
Prince  of  Nassau,  on  horseback,  is  in  The  Hague  GaUerj’-;  others  are  in  the 
Louvre  and  Amsterdam  Museums.  His  chef-d’ auvre,  the  “Siege  of  Namur,” 
is  in  the  Vienna  Gallery.  He  had  good  inventive  powers,  drew  correctly, 
and  had  facility  of  execution,  but  his  color  was  not  equal  to  his  other  qualities. 

4 REPOSE  AFTER  THE  HUNT. 

There  is  a broad  open  landscape  ■with  small  trees.  The  spoils  of  the 
chase  lie  in  the  immediate  foreground,  and  standing  near  by  are  three  horses 
with  a groom  at  their  heads;  one  is  white,  the  others  dark  bay.  Beyond  at 
the  left  are  a group  of  merry  people  and  a couple  leading  off  in  a dance;  near 
these  are  two  mounted  hunters,  a coach,  and  a table  where  refreshments  are 
being  served.  At  the  right  are  other  figures  and  in  the  middle  distance  is  a 
field  of  ripe  grain  being  har\^ested.  Beyond  this  are  the  rolling  hiUs  and 
farm-lands;  above  is  a bright  blue  sky  with  light  floating  clouds.

53  A SIEGE. 

Beneath  a tree  at  the  right  in  front  of  a tent  from  which  a banner  is 
floating,  are  some  horsemen,  four  of  whom  are  mounted,  -while  three  others 
are  in  the  act  of  mounting.  One  soldier  is  sounding  his  trumpet,  another 
beats  the  kettle  drums,  a third  standing  vigorously  sounds  his  horn,  while 
the  fourth  listlessly  holds  his  horn  in  his  lap.  A white  horse  is  in  the  center 
of  the  group.  At  the  left  a mother  sits  nursing  her  babe,  while  two  men  at 
a cask  are  drinking  wine,  and  a third  stands  near  by  smoking  a long  clay  pipe. 
Tents  and  portions  of  an  army  lead  off  into  the  middle  ground,  and  from

202  “MERCY’S  DREAM.” 

“Christiana  said  to  Mercy: — What  was  the  matter  that  you  did  laugh 
in  your  sleep  to-night?  I suppose  you  were  in  a dream. 

“Mercy — I was  a-dreamed  that  I sat  all  alone  in  a solitary  place,  and 
was  bemoaning  of  the  hardness  of  my  heart  ....  Methought  I looked 
up,  and  saw  one  coming  with  wings  towards  me.  So  he  came  directly  to  me, 
and  said,  ‘Mercy,  what  aileth  thee?’  Now  when  he  had  h»ard  me  make 
my  complaint,  he  said,  ‘ Peace  be  to  thee’;  ....  and  he  put  a beautiful 
crown  upon  my  head.  Then  he  took  me  by  the  hand,  and  said,  ‘Mercy, 
come  after  me.’  So  he  went  up,  and  I followed,  till  we  came  to  a golden 
Gate.  Then  he  knocked;  and  when  they  within  had  opened,  the  Man  went 
in,  and  I followed  him  up  to  a throne  upon  which  One  sat;  and  he  said  to  me, 
‘ Welcome,  daughter.’  The  place  looked  bright  and  twinkling  lUce  stars,  or 
rather  like  the  sun.  . . .” — {Bunyan’s  Pilgrim’s  Progress.)

A bashful  youth  and  maiden  are  walking  side  by  side  over  the  cool  damp 
meadow  where  the  cattle  graze.  Cows  are  in  the  distant  fields,  and  above

637  EXPECTATION. 

A young  Holland  woman  typical  of  her  class  is  sitting  at  full  length  with 
the  face  and  figure  turned  slightly  to  the  right.  Her  blonde  hair  creeps  from 
beneath  the  frills  of  her  close-fitting  white  cap  down  to  her  broad  shoulders. 
Her  head  is  inclined  forward  as  she  presses  a needle  through  the  linen  garment 
folded  over  the  forefinger  of  the  left  hand.  The  sturdy  weather-beaten  arms 
bare  to  the  elbows  and  the  warm  violet  gray  sleeves  melt  into  the  subdued 
tone  of  the  white  ’kerchief  which  covers  her  bosom.  The  skirt  is  black  and 
her  bare  feet  are  thrust  into  a pair  of  low  wooden  shoes.  On  a table  at  the 
right  is  a potted  plant,  and  at  the  left  are  a large  wicker  basket,  a workbox 
and  some  yarn.

army.  He  then  resumed  his  engraving,  and  worked  two  years  in  England 
as  a draughtsman  on  wood.  He  may  be  characterized  as  a rustic  artist.  He 
paints  farmyard  scenes  with  vigor,  and  excels  in  accurate  knowledge  of  sheep 
and  poultry,  of  which  he  is  a fancier.  By  his  truthful  pictures  of  pigs  he

453  THE  SHEEPFOLD. 

The  bright  sunlight  breaks  through  a crude  latticed  gate  illuminating 
a straw-covered  floor.  All  around  the  shadowy  sides  of  the  fold  are  racks 
filled  with  grain  upon  which  the  sheep  are  feeding.  At  the  right  the  sheep 
crowd  around  a boy  in  a blue  blouse  who  is  putting  a bundle  of  grain  into  a 
rack,  and  overhead  are  the  rough  wooden  beams  which  support  the  floor 
above.

seum of  Blois.  During  the  Franco-German  War,  1870,  he  served  as  “franc- 
tireur  ” in  the  Army  of  Paris.  At  the  conclusion  of  that  war  he  adopted  a dif- 
ferent style  in  Art,  painting  such  subjects  as  the  “Young  Woman  with  the 
Sword,”  “ Reverie,”  “ The  First  Arrival.”  “The  Minuet,”  1880,  was  purchased 
by  the  Count  of  Fitzlcievich.  At  that  time  he  painted  portraits  of  the  Du- 
chesses d’Uzes  and  de  la  Tremouille,  and  of  many  others  of  the  nobilit3'  and

Chevalier,  Legion  of  Honor.  A painter  of  landscape,  mostl}’  of  the  ^ osgea 
district,  where  he  was  born.  In  the  earher  works  of  Jan-lMonchablon  there  is 
a subtle  delicacy  of  treatment  and  a completeness  of  finish,  in  which  reahsm 
is  carried  to  its  extremest  point;  but  in  his  more  recent  productions  he  re- 
tained his  deep  feehng  for  nature,  and  aimed  at  a broader  technique,  a more 
intense  coloring,  and  those  quahties  which  give  to  the  pictures  of  the  old 
Dutch  masters  their  peculiar  charm.

JORDAENS,  Jacob.  Flemish  School. 

jBorn  at  Antwerp,  1593;  died  there,  1678.  Pupil  of  Adam  Van  Noort, 
as  was  Rubens,  he  became  the  follower  and  half  assistant  of  the  latter.  He 
married  early  in  life  the  daughter  of  Van  Noort,  and  never  visited  Italy. 
He  was  a master  of  great  power.  He  painted  a variety  of  subjects. 
Many  of  his  sacred  pictures  are  in  the  churches  of  Flanders  and  Brabant, 
but  they  are  not  his  best  works.  His  pictures  vary  much,  according  as  he 
was  interested  or  not  in  his  subject.  His  color  was  fine,  his  impasto  some- 
what unequal,  but  he  excelled  in  depth  of  chiaroscuro,  and  a “ certain 
golden  glow,”  in  which  he  sometimes  surpassed  even  Rubens.  The  “ Ho'*' 
Family,”  in  this  Gallery,  is  one  of  his  best  sacred  pictures. 

47  THE  VISIT  OF  ST.  JOHN  TO  THE  INFANT  JESUS. 

In  the  center  of  the  picture,  with  one  foot  resting  upon  the  globe  and 
the  other  upon  the  head  of  a serpent,  which  encircles  the  world,  stands  the 
Child  Christ,  supported  by  Mary,  who  extends  her  right  hand  to  the  infant 
St.  John,  who  is  seated  upon  the  back  of  a lamb.  St.  Joseph,  with  one  hand 
resting  lightly  over  the  back  of  a wicker  chair,  in  which  is  seated  St.  Anne, 
leans  gently  forward  in  rapt  attention.  St.  Elisabeth,  a black  mantle  cover- 
ing her  head  and  draping  her  figure,  supports  the  infant  St.  John,  and  back  of 
this  group  stands  St.  Zacharias  and  the  guardian  angle  with  outspread  wings.

Two  men,  heroic  in  size,  three-quarters  length,  stand  behind  a large 
globe;  the  one  at  the  left  of  the  spectator  has  his  right  hand  extended  as  if

forward  with  his  right  elbow  on  the  globe  and  his  hand  to  his  cheek.

450  CRUSADERS  BEFORE  JERUSALEM. 

The  intention  of  the  artist  was  to  express  symbolically  the  idea  thai 
Christianity  has  become  the  triumphant  religion  of  the  universe.  In  the 
middle  and  extreme  distance  can  be  seen  the  city  of  Jerusalem  with  its  domes 
and  palaces,  the  crusaders’  coveted  goal;  somewhat  removed,  some  soldiers, 
a group  of  eminent  knights,  ecclesiastics,  bishops,  and  crusade  preachers 
contemplate  the  city  from  a hill-top;  on  another  hill  to  the  right  can  be  seen 
the  army  of  crusaders  commanded  by  Godfrey  of  Bouillon,  who  holds  uplifted 
in  both  hands  a crown,  symbol  of  the  divine  right  of  the  Kings  of  Jerusalem; 
near  him  are  Boemond  and  Tancredi,  soldiers  who  had  distinguished  them- 
selves in  the  memorable  battle  the  crusaders  fought  with  the  Saracens.  The 
ground  is  covered  with  the  enemy’s  dead.  On  the  foreground  in  the  middle 
is  Peter  of  Amiens  on  his  knees,  with  eyes  turned  towards  the  Holy  City, 
and  offering  to  God  prayers  of  thanksgiving.  Behind  him  a group  of  penitents 
are  lying  on  the  ground  or  scourging  themselves;  above,  borne  on  clouds, 
is  seen  the  divine  apparition  of  the  Redeemer  accompanied  by  the  Holy 
Virgin,  and  surrounded  by  the  Saints  and  Martyrs.  Godfrey  of  Bouillon, 
'^Paring  on  his  head  a crown  of  thorns,  offers  the  crown  of  the  Holy  Land  to 
the  Saviour,  the  real  King  of  .Terusalem.  Near  Peter  of  Amiens  is  a group 
of  fervent  psalmists  of  the  Christian  faith,  followed  by  the  knights  in  magni- 
ficent armor.  The  troubadour  of  the  middle  ages,  so  closely  associated 
with  romances  of  the  crusaders,  here  also  finds  his  place.  The  beautiful 
Armida,  borne  seated  on  a litter  draped  with  laurel  branches,  is  carried  by 
Moors,  while  her  knight,  Rinaldo,  leads  the  way  to  the  city,  as,  pious  and 
beautiful,  she  lifts  her  gaze  to  the  heavenly  apparition.

LAWRENCE,  Sir  Thomas,  P.R.A.  English  Scfwoi. 

Born  at  Bristol,  1769.  Died  at  London,  1830.  He  early  distinguished 
himself  for  his  ability  in  drawing.  His  father  was  landlord  of  the  Black  Bear 
Inn,  Devizes,  and  the  first  efforts  of  the  young  painter  which  attracted  notice 
were  some  portraits  in  chalk  of  his  father’s  customers.  At  the  early  age  of 
ten  years  he  set  up  as  a portrait  painter  in  crayons,  at  Oxford;  but  he  soon 
afterwards  ventured  to  take  a house  at  Bath,  where  he  immediately  met 
with  much  employment  and  extraordinary  success.  In  his  seventeenth  year 
he  commenced  oil  painting;  in  1787,  twelve  months  afterwards,  he  settled 
in  London,  and  entered  himself  as  a student  in  the  Royal  Academy.  His 
success  in  London  was  as  great  as  it  had  been  in  the  Provinces.  In  1791, 
though  under  the  age  required  by  the  laws  (twenty-four),  he  was  elected  an 
associate  of  the  Academy,  and  after  the  death  of  Sir  Joshua  Reynolds,  in  the 
following  year,  he  succeeded  him  as  painter  to  the  King.  He  painted  at 
this  time,  in  his  twenty-third  year,  the  portraits  of  the  King  and  Queen, 
which  were  presented  by  Lord  Macartney  to  the  Emperor  of  China.  In  1794, 
he  was  elected  a Royal  Academician ; he  was  knighted  by  the  Prince  Regent 
in  1815;  and  at  the  death  of  Benjamin  West,  in  1820,  he  was  unanimously 
elected  president  of  the  Academy.  From  the  time  of  his  election  as  a mem- 
ber of  the  Academy,  to  his  death.  Sir  Thomas’s  career  as  a portrait  painter 
was  unrivaled;  he  contributed,  from  1787  to  1830,  inclusive,  311  pictures 
to  the  exhibitions  of  the  Royal  Academy.  He  died  in  London,  at  his  house 
in  Russell  Square,  January  7,  1830.  He  was  never  married.  Shortly  after 
his  death,  a selection  of  ninety-one  of  his  works  was  exhibited  at  the  British 
Institution.  He  was  a member  of  St.  Luke  at  Rome,  and  of  many  other 
foreign  academies;  and  in  1825  he  was  created  a Chevalier  of  the  Legion 
of  Honor.

469  ROMAN  LADIES  AT  THE  TOMB  OF  THEIR  ANCES- 
TORS. 

A feeble  light  enters  the  crypt  through  the  stairway  by  which  the  ladies 
descended  to  the  tomb  of  their  ancestors.  On^  of  the  ladies  is  seared  in  an  old 
Roman  chair  in  the  middle  of  the  roon, , the  other,  robed  in  loose  white  drapery, 
stands  behind  her  companion;  both  are  regarding  fixedly  two  busts  which 
occupy  a niche  above  a mortuary  tablet  which  is  illumined  by  the  flickering 
light  of  a lamp  which  stands  by  the  tomb.

turned to  America  in  1800,  and  on  his  death,  1804,  Charles  was  apprenticed 
to  a bookseller,  but  in  a few  years  he  was  en.abled  to  return  to  London,  where 
he  became  a student  at  the  Royal  Academy  (1813) . Although  his  first  pictures 
were  meritorious,  it  was  not  until  his  return  from  the  Continent,  in  1817,  that 
he  displayed  his  special  talent  in  the  picture  of  “Slender,  and  Anne  Page.”

Two  years  later  he  exhibited  his  “Sir  Roger  de  Coveriey”  (Marquis  of  Lans- 
downe),  which  left  him  without  a rival  in  this  class  of  subjects.  He  became 
an  A.R.A.  in  1821,  and  R.A.  in  1826.  In  1833  he  accepted  the  professorship 
of  drawing  at  West  Point,  but  held  the  position  only  a few  months.  Return- 
ing to  England,  he  painted  two  historical  pieces  for  the  Queen,  “The  Coro- 
nation,” 1838,  and  “The  Baptism  of  the  Princess  Royal.”  He  was  professor 
of  painting  at  the  Royal  Academy  from  1847  to  1852.

July  18, 1808.  History  painter.  Taken  to  Americans  a child,  by  his  parents,  who 
leettled  in  Philadelphia,  where  he  was  first  instructed  by  John  Rubens  Smith;

of  his  works  are:  “Washington  Crossing  the  Delaware,”  “Defeat  of  General 
Braddock,”  “John  Knox  and  Mary  Stuart”  (1845),  “Maid  of  Saragossa,”

186  WASHINGTON  CROSSING  THE  DELAWARE. 

“December  25,  1776,  the  Commander-in-chief’s  headquarters  were  at 
Newtown,  a little  village  on  a small  branch  of  the  Neshaming,  two  miles  north- 
east from  Bristol.  There  were  about  1,500  Hessians  and  a troop  of  British 
light  horse  at  Trenton;  these  Wasliington  determined  to  surprise.  The  posts 
at  Mount  Holly,  Burlington,  Black  Horse,  and  Bordentown  were  to  be  at- 
tacked, at  the  same  time,  by  the  Pennsylvania  militia  under  Generals  Cad- 
wallader  and  Ewing,  the  former  to  cross  near  Bristol,  the  latter  below  Trenton 
Falls;  while  Washington  leading  the  main  body  of  the  Continental  troops 
(in  aU  about  2,400  men,  and  twenty  pieces  of  artillery)  was  to  march  down 
upon  the  enemy  at  Trenton.  Christmas  night  was  selected  by  Washington 
for  the  execution  of  his  enterprise.  The  cold  weather  of  the  twenty-four 

104 


hours  preceding  put  serious  obstacles  in  the  way.  The  river  was  so  full  of 
floating  ice  that  at  first  it  was  doubtful  whether  a crossing  could  be  effected 
at  all.  A storm  of  sleet  and  snow  had  just  commenced,  and  the  night 
became  excessively  dark  and  dreary.  The  perilous  voyage  began  early  in 
the  evening  in  boats  and  bateaux,  but  it  was  nearly  four  in  the  morning 
before  the  little  army  was  mustered  on  the  Jersey  shore.  The  victory  of  the 
Americans  at  Trenton  was  complete.”

LEYDEN,  Lucas  van.  (Real  name  Lucas  Huygensz  or 

Lucas  Jacobsz.)  Dutch  School. 

Born  at  Leyden  in  1494;  died  there,  1533.  Pupil  of  his  father  Hugo 
Jacob,  and  of  Cornelis  Enghelbrechtsen.  He  was  remarkably  precocious, 
having  etched  plates  from  his  own  designs  at  the  age  of  8 or  9 years;  at 
12  to  14  he  produced  works  that  are  still  highly  esteemed.  A warm  friend- 
ship existed  between  him  and  Albert  Durer,  which  was  never  interrupted 
by  professional  jealousy.  He  painted  in  oil,  distemper,  and  on  glass,  suc- 
ceeding equally  well  in  historical  subjects,  landscape,  and  portraits.  His  en- 
gravings on  copper  gave  him  a rank  besides  his  great  contemporaries,  Diirer 
and  Marcantonio. 

250  CHRIST  PRESENTED  TO  THE  PEOPLE. 

In  a public  square  of  the  city  of  Jerusalem  is  a raised  scaffold  or  platform, 
on  which  the  Saviour  is  seen  in  a group  of  six  persons,  two  of  whom  draw  aside 
the  purple  robe  and  show  Him  to  the  people.  In  the  foreground,  groups  of 
persons  in  richly  colored  costumes  fill  the  street  below,  witnessing  and  com- 
menting on  the  scene.  The  windows  of  the  houses  which  surround  the  square 
are  filled  with  spectators.  It  was  formerly  in  the  possession  of  Baron  Caron- 
delet,  Spanish  Governor  of  the  province  of  Louisiana,  and  was  purchased  from 
a descendant  of  the  family.  It  would  seem  from  an  ancient  document  accom- 
panying the  picture  that  it  was  from  the  sale  of  the  Prince  de  Conti,  and  that  it 
is  the  original  of  the  picture  in  the  Belvedere  Gallery,  Vienna,  which  in  the  old 
catalogues  was  attributed  to  this  artist,  and  in  the  more  recent  catalogues  is 
called  a Copy.  There  is  an  old  engraving  of  this  picture  by  Lucas  van  Leyden 
himself,  dated  1510.

257  JOSEPH’S  COAT. 

This  is  one  of  a series  of  tempera  paintings  on  linen,  illustrating  the  history 
of  Joseph,  which  was  seen  by  Van  Mander  in  a house  at  Delft,  as  is  specially 
recorded  by  him  in  his  life  of  the  Dutch  Master  (’Het  Leven  der  ’Schilders, 
etc.).  He  there  notes  the  injury  to  the  set  of  decorative  canvases  as  bein^ 

105 


caused  by  the  damp  atmosphere  of  Holland.  This  picture  is  of  pecuEia 
interest,  as  being  one  of  the  very  few  among  his  paintings  that  are  authenti- 
cated by  documentary  evidence. 

Jacob,  the  Ruler,  and  father  of  Joseph,  with  a sceptre  in  his  right  hand  is 
seated  in  an  open  court  beneath  a red  canopy.  Surrounded  by  soldiers,  coun- 
cilors, and  friends,  he  is  receiving  the  news  of  Joseph’s  death.  Standing  before 
him  is  one  of  the  brothers  the  blood-stained  coat  of  many  colors,  “And  he 
knew  it,  and  said.  It  is  my  son’s  coat;  an  evil  beast  hath  devoured  him;  Joseph 
is  without  doubt  rent  in  pieces.’’  The  impressive  and  ornate  character  of  the 
surrounding  architecture  conveys  the  feeling  of  royal  association  rather  tlian 
that  of  classic  accuracy. 

This  pictxire  belonged  in  1766  to  Lord  Methuen,  and  in  1886  passed  from 
Lord  Methuen’s  collection  at  Corsham  House,  into  that  ^f  Mr.  Marquand,  of 
New  York.  Mentioned  in  The  English  Co-nnoisseur,  London,  1766,  II,  36,  and 
formerly  catalogued  under  the  title  of  “Our  Saviour  carried  before  Pontius 
Pilate.’’

1843,  settling  in  New  York.  He  excelled  in  painting  cabinet  portraits  in  oU, 
and  his  ability  was  soon  recognized.  • Added  to  his  facilty  in  securing  a like- 
ness, he  finished  his  pictures  with  extreme  delicacy,  without  in  the  least  rob- 
bing them  of  their  force  and  character.  He  painted  Heniy  Clay  and  Daniel 
Webster.  In  1839  the  National  Academy  of  Design  awarded  liim  the  medal 
offered  for  the  best  specimen  of  portrait  painting  exhibited.

for  their  originality.  Many  of  his  pictures  have  been  engraved.

MAES,  Nicolaes.  Dutch  School. 

Bom  at  Dordrecht,  1632;  died  at  Amsterdam,  1693.  Pupil  of  Rem- 
brandt, and  distinguished  from  most  of  the  Dutch  genre  painters  by  his  richer 
coloring.  In  the  latter  years  of  his  life  he  seems  to  have  become  chiefly  a por- 
trait painter.  The  Amsterdam  Gallery  has  twelve,  the  National  Gallery 
five,  and  the  Berlin  Gallery,  the  Ufflzi,  and  the  Van  der  Hoop  Collection  have 
each  one  of  his  pictures,  but  most  of  them  are  in  private  collections.  Smith 
mentions  only  forty-five  of  his  works  in  all.

heavy  brogans  his  feet,  from  which  blue  stockings  rise  to  his  short  gmy 
breeches  which  button  at  the  knee.  A group  of  trees  are  in  the  middle  dis- 
tance where  sheep  are  grazing  and  a flock  of  geese  are  waddling  about  on  the 
side  of  the  hill.  On  the  distant  fields  at  the  left  is  a wliite  thatched  cabin. 
The  sky  is  light,  luminous,  and  cloudy.

545  U ATTENTAT  D’ANAGNI. 

Boniface  VIII,  a native  of  Anagni,  was  elected  Pope  in  1294.  Philip  the 
Fair,  of  France,  resisted  his  authority  in  spiritual  matters,  and,  aided  by 
Italian  enemies  of  the  Pope,  compelled  him  to  take  refuge  in  his  native  town. 
Hither  he  was  pursued  by  Sciarra  Colonna,  at  that  time  head  of  the  most  cele- 
brated and  powerful  of  the  Roman  aristocratic  families.  The  picture  repre- 
sents the  moment  when  Boniface  says  to  his  assailants,  Here  is  my  neck;  here 
is  my  head;  strike!  but  I will  die  Pope.”  Boniface  was  tliro-mi  into  prison, 
and  though  liberated  by  the  people  of  Anagni,  died  -ndtlun  a month.

forest  bordering  a lake.  She  stands  in  flowing  crimson  drapery  with  a dart 
poised  in  her  right  hand  ready  to  hurl  at  a fleeing  stag  who  has  plunged  into 
the  water.  By  her  side  is  a nymph  in  the  act  of  drawing  a bow,  and  at  her 
right  crowding  the  bank  are  five  others  in  hot  pursuit  of  the  game,  one  of 
whom  is  holding  by  a leash  two  straining  hounds.  In  the  immediate  fore-

called  Giovanni  da  San  Giovanni.  Pupil  of  Matteo  Rosselli,  whose  finished

serious  work.  Works;  “Portrait  of  a Cook,”  “Reunion  of  Huntsmen,”

MARATTA,  Carlo.  Roman  School.

dalle  Madonne,  from  the  large  number  of  Madonna  pictures  that  he  painted.) 
Was  an  imitator  of  Raphael,  and  for  nearly  half  a century  the  most  eminent 
painter  in  Rome.  The  portrait  of  a Pope  or  Cardinal  should  have  come  kindly 
to  him,  for  he  was  in  the  service  of  several  Popes,  and  was  appointed  Superin- 
tendent of  the  Vatican  Chambers  by  Innocent  XI.  Clement  XI  entrusted  to 
him  the  complete  restoration  of  the  frescos  of  Raphael,  and  gave  him  the 
insignia  of  the  “Order  of  Christ”  for  his  labor  upon  them.  He  was  President 
of  the  Academy  of  St.  Luke  at  the  time  of  his  death.

Born  at  Sevres,  1827;  died  suddenly  at  Hyeres,  1890.  The  most  dis- 
tinguished pupil  of  Troyon,  whose  attention  he  attracted  while  employed  in 
the  porcelain  works  as  a decorator,  and  through  whose  influence  he  began  the 
study  of  nature,  and  subsequently  abandoned  the  pottery  at  Sevres  for  a 
studio  in  Paris.  The  influence  of  Troyon  is  evident  in  all  of  Van  Marcke’s 
earlier  works.  But  he  was  a consummate  draughtsman,  and  soon  developed 
a style  of  his  own,  displaying  marked  ability  and  freedom  in  composition, 
individuality  of  touch,  and  a quality  of  color  differing  from  that  of  his  mas- 
ter. His  works  sparkle  with  sunlight,  and  beneath  the  showery  skies  there  is 
a freshness  of  verdure  replete  with  the  charm  of  midsummer  days.  Medals:

shoulders,  the  Christian  martyr  stands  in  the  arena  with  one  hand  raised, 
touching  the  high  wall  which  makes  secure  the  throng  above.  Her  colorless 
face  gives  no  sign  of  fear  as  it  looks  up  in  recognition  of  “The  Last  Token,”  a 
rose  dropped  from  the  hand  of  a faithful  friend.  A fierce  leopard  creeps 
through  the  wall  beneath  the  raised  iron  grating  at  her  left,  and  a hyena  and 
leopard  tumble  about  on  the  ground  at  the  right  of  the  victim.

538  “FRIEDLAND,  1807.” 

Extract  from  the  ArtisVs  Latter  to  Mr.  A.  T.  Stewart,  dated  January  27th,  1876. 


"I  did  not  intend  to  paint  a battle — I wanted  to  paint  Napoleon  at  the 
zenith  of  his  glory;  I wanted  to  paint  the  love,  the  adoration  of  the  soldiers 
for  the  great  Captain  in  whom  they  had  faith,  and  for  whom  they  were  ready 
to  die. 

“ I previously  had  represented,  in  the  picture  ‘ 1814,’  the  heartrending  end 
of  the  Imperial  Dream — those  men  only  recently  intoxicated  with  glorj’',  now 
shown  exhausted,  and  no  longer  believing  in  their  invincible  chief.  My 
palette  then  did  not  have  colors  sad  enough  for  the  purpose;  but  to-day,  in 
‘Friedland,  1807,’  wishing  everything  to  appear  brilliant  at  this  triumphant 
moment,  it  seemed  to  me  I was  unable  to  find  colors  sufficiently  dazzling.  No 
shade  should  be  upon  the  Imperial  face,  to  take  from  him  the  epic  character  I 
wished  to  give  him.  The  battle,  already  commenced,  was  necessarj’'  to  add  to 
the  enthusiasm  of  the  soldiers,  and  make  the  subject  stand  forth,  but  not  to 
diminish  it  by  saddening  details.  All  such  shadows  I avoided,  and  presented 
nothing  but  a dismounted  cannon,  and  some  growing  wheat  which  would 
never  ripen. 

“ This  was  enough. 

“ The  men  and  the  Emperor  are  in  the  presence  of  each  other.  The  soldiers 
cry  to  him  that  they  are  his,  and  the  impressive  Chief,  whose  Imperial  will 
directs  the  masses  that  move  around,  salutes  his  devoted  army.  He  and  they 
' ' comprehend  each  other,  and  absolute  confidence  is  expressed  in  every 


‘‘  Such  was  the  idea  as  it  leaped  from  my  brain  the  first  instant  when  I em- 
bodied the  picture  in  thought;  and  which,  in  spite  of  the  long  time  I have 
taken  to  put  it  on  canvas,  has  always  remained  with  me  so  clear  and  plain  that 
I have  never  in  any  manner  modified  it.” 

“Friedland,  1807”  was  sold  at  auction  at  the  sale  of  the  Stewart  Collec- 
tion, March  25,  1887,  and  purchased  by  Judge  Henry  Hilton  for  $66,000,  and 
by  him  given  to  the  Museum  in  1887. 

Napoleon  mounted  on  his  famous  white  horse  and  surrounded  by  his 
generals  and  aides  is  upon  a slight  eminence  in  the  center  of  the  picture.  In 
wild  enthusiasm  the  Cuirassiers  are  charging  before  him  through  a field  of 
unripe  wheat,  every  soldier  rising  in  his  stirrups  and  shouting  “Vive  I’Em- 
pereur”  as  he  raises  his  sword  flashing  in  the  light  of  a midday  sun.  The  bat- 
tle rages  in  the  distance  and  above  is  a clear  blue  sky  with  light  floating  clouds.

easel;  his  right  arm  is  resting  across  his  knee;  and  in  his  left  hand  he  holds  a 
large  straw  hat.  The  other  stands  with  his  figure  throM'n  back  and  the  head

superior  to  him  in  invention  and  the  delineation  of  character;  but  iletsu

MORONI,  Giovanni  Battista.  Venetian  School.  Berenson  attributes 

this  picture  to  Savoldo. 

Bom  at  Bondio,  near  Albino,  Province  of  Bergamo,  about  1.520;  died  at 
Bergamo,  1578.  Pupil  of  Alessandro  Bonvicino  called  II  Moretto.  Giovanni  | 
Battista  Moroni  was  a painter  without  honor  in  his  own  country,  and  when  i 

the  people  from  Bergamo  came  to  Titian  to  be  painted,  he  used  to  refer  them  1 

to  their  own  countryman.  No  better  face  painter,  he  would  teU  them,  ex-  1 
isted.  Moroni  was  not  a poet  in  the  true  sense  of  the  word,  but  a consum-  ■ 

mate  painter.  Yet,  now  and  then,  he  surpassed  himself  and  pierced  the  j 

surface  till  he  reached  the  soul  of  the  sitter.  ;

Born  at  Haarlem,  1474;  died  there,  1555.  Pupil  of  Jacob  Janszen  van 
Haarlem.  He  was  for  eighteen  years  painter  to  Margaret  of  Austria,  Regent  of 
the  Netherlands,  and  during  that  period  resided  at  the  Court,  to  which  he 
was  attached  also  as  a Gentleman.  Mostert  paid  much  attention  to  landscape 
and  was  also  a good  portrait  painter;  his  ecclesiastical  works  have  mostly  per- 
ished, but  a very  delicate  picture  ascribed  to  him  of  the  Virgin,  with  smaller 
representations  of  her  seven  sorrows,  is  still  preserved  in  the  church  of  Notre- 
Dame  at  Bruges,  but  no  known  picture  bears  the  signature  of  Mostert.  The 
Antwerp  Museum  has  three,  the  Vienna  & Brussels  Galleries  have  one  each, 
and  the  Old  Pinakothek,  Munich,  has  three  pictures  by  this  artist.  The 
National  Gallery  in  London  has  a ‘ ‘ Virgin  and  Child  in  a Garden  ” conjectur- 
ally  assigned  to  him,  as  is  the“  Ecce  Homo — Mater  Dolorosa”  in  this  Museum. 

85  A ECCE  HOMO— MATER  DOLOROSA. 

Life-size,  three-quarter  length.  Both  figures  are  standing  in  a highly 
ornate  Gothic  %vindow  with  a double  arch.  The  Saviour  is  at  the  left,  with 
the  crown  of  thorns  pressed  upon  His  brow;  from  which  the  blood  trickles 
down  over  His  pale  face,  which  is  profoundly  eloquent  in  its  expression  of 
resignation.  His  hands  are  bound  with  a cord,  and  in  the  right  He  holds 
the  reed.  A dark  green  mantle,  tied  in  a knot  at  the  breast,  covers  the 
shoulders  and  falls  at  each  side  of  the  figure.  The  sorrowing  Mother  is  at 
the  right  with  bowed  head,  and  hands  across  her  breast;  the  delicate  pale 
face,  with  its  exquisite  expression  of  the  most  profound  grief,  is  framed  in  a 
white  head-dress  severe  in  its  lines  but  chaste  and  pure  in  color.  A dark 
green  mantle  falls  from  the  head  and  envelopes  Her  figure.  In  the  back- 
ground are  highly  ornate  buildings  which,  with  a distant  hill  and  blue  moun- 
tains, are  seen  beneath  the  arch  of  the  window.  A scourge  is  attached  to  the 
marble  column  which  separates  the  figures.

Marie  Antoinette  (Salon  de  Musique)  at  Trianon,  Versailles;  later  the  prop- 
erty of  the  Comte  de  Montdesir  in  his  Chateau  near  Cherbourg.  It  is  unlikely 
that  this  picture  was  ever  engraved  as  it  was  given  by  the  Queen  to  the  Mont- 
d4sir  family.

left  hand  she  holds  a bow  with  one  end  resting  by  her  side  on  a piece  of  dull 
red  drapery  which  infolds  her  figure.  Over  a pearly-white  d6collet4  dress  is  a 
leopard  skin  knotted  at  the  right  shoulder.  The  figure  is  relieved  against  a 
clear  sky.

8 SUNSET. 

The  low  setting  sun  bathes  the  scene  in  a tender  luminous  light.  In  the 
center  of  the  picture  a lake  which  extends  to  the  horizon  is  dotted  with  water 
fowl,  and  long  reaches  of  meadow-grass;  there  is  a distant  group  of  trees,  and 
a churchspire  rises  into  the  sky,  and  the  sunny  hillside  at  the  left  is  marked  at 
the  water’s  edge  by  slender  trunks  of  trees  which  shadow  a single_  boatman 
and  liis  tiny  craft.  The  tree  in  the  foreground  at  the  left,  majestic  in  its  pro- 
portions, has  abundant  leafy  foliage  which  reaches  out  to  catch  the  fading

are  in  the  immediate  foreground  of  the  picture.

West.  To  Peale  belongs  the  honor  of  having  painted  more  portraits  of  Wash- 
ington from  life  than  any  other  artist.  In  1772  he  drew  a half-length  portrait  of 
Washington  at  Mount  Vernon  (painting  also  three  miniatures  “for  iirs.  Wash- 
ington” and  the  Custis  children),  and  making  at  the  same  time  the  “bust

598  THUSNELDA  AT  THE  TRIUMPHAL  ENTRY  OF  GER- 
MAN ICUS  INTO  ROME. 

Painted  to  order  for  the  late  A.  T.  Stewart,  Esq.  At  the  request  of 
Emperor  William,  was  exhibited  in  Berlin  before  being  sent  to  this  country. 
The  large  painting  now  in  the  Munich  Gallery  was  painted  subsequently  to  the 
above. 

The  following  description  is  by  the  artist  himself; 

The  Emperor  Tiberius,  surrounded  by  his  Courtiers  (Favorites,  Coun- 
cilors, Lictors,  Senators,  and  Roman  Women),  has  taken  his  place  upon  a 

136 


tribune  under  a spread  canopy,  in  order  that  the  triumplial  procession  ol 
Germanicus  may  pass  before  him. 

Germanicus  appears  in  the  background  upon  a triumphal  car,  accorti- 
panied  by  his  five  sons,  surrounded  by  Trophies  of  Victory,  and  is  greeted  by 
the  applause  and  acclamations  of  the  people,  who  are  to  be  seen  at  the  Arch  of 
Triumph. 

In  front  of  the  car,  reaching  from  the  middle  distance  to  the  foreground 
of  the  picture,  are  the  German  captives  being  led  in  chains.  As  principal 
figure  in  this  group  and  of  the  picture,  walks  Thusnelda,  in  the  costume  of  the 
Germans,  with  her  son,  Tumelicus  (a  child  of  three  years),  accompanied  by  a 
nurse  and  an  attendant.  Before  her  is  the  priest,  Libes,  coupled  (chained) 
together  with  warriors,  escorted  by  Roman  soldiers.  Behind  Thusnelda  are  to 
be  seen  her  brothers,  leaders  of  the  Cherusci,  chained  together,  with  bears, 
etc,,  etc.  The  foreground  to  the  left  is  occupied  by  the  populace  of  Rome,  who 
mock  and  insult  Thusnelda. 

Thusnelda  having  been  forcibly  carried  away  from  her  husband,  Armin- 
ius,  a German  Prince,  by  her  father  Segestes,  was,  from  reasons  which  appeared 
to  him  advantageous  for  his  own  personal  interests  and  the  condition  of  the 
Germans,  betrayed  and  delivered  into  the  hands  of  the  Romans. 

In  the  picture,  Tiberius  has  selected  Segestes  to  stand  before  the  steps  of 
his  throne,  and  has  forced  him  to  witness  the  shame  of  his  own  daughter;  he  is 
mocked  by  the  Senators  sitting  near  him,  as  they  point  to  the  prisoners  below 

Strabo  describes,  as  an  eye-witness,  this  event;  he,  as  well  as  Tacilus, 
although  Romans,  express  plainly  their  sympathy  for  the  devotion  and  love  of 
country  exhibited  by  Thusnelda,  whose  personality  will  ever  be  a poetical 
subject  for  an  artist.

PINE,  Robert  Edge.  English  School. 

Bom  at  London,  1742;  died  at  Philadelphia,  1790.  He  was  the  son 
of  Mr.  John  Pine,  the  engraver,  and  was  established  in  London  as  early  as 
1761-62.  For  his  picture  ^‘The  Surrender  of  Calais,”  1760,  he  received  the 
first  prize  of  one  hundred  guineas  from  the  Society  for  the  Encouragement  of 
Art.  In  1762' he  obtained  the  first  prize  for  “Canute  on  the  Sea  Shore,  Re- 
proving his  Courtiers  for  Flattery.”  In  17  72  he  went  to  Bath,  remaining  until 
1779,  when  he  returned  to  London.  In  1784  he  came  to  America,  settling  in 
Philadelphia  with  the  avowed  object  of  painting  the  distinguished  persons  and 
events  of  our  Revolution,  but  met  with  so  little  encouragement  that  he 
devoted  his  time  to  portrait  painting.  His  first  portrait  was  that  of  the  Hon. 
Francis  Hopkinson,  and  bears  the  date  of  1785.  "Washington,  in  a note  dated 
Mount  Vernon,  16th  of  May,  1785,  to  the  Hon.  Francis  Hopkinson,  consents  to 
give  sittings  to  Pine  for  a portrait,  to  be  introduced  with  other  people  of  dis- 
tinction in  a large  historical  picture,  contemplated  by  the  artist.  But  his  ideal 
was  never  realized,  as  he  died,  without  having  made  much  progress  with 
his  collection  of  material  for  his  grand  historical  picture.  He  was  small  of 
stature,  and  morbidly  irritable.  After  his  death  his  wife  and  children  opened 
a school,  but  soon  returned  to  England.

PIOMBO,  Fra  Sebastiano  del.  (Real  name  Sebastiano  Lu- 

ciani.)  Venetian  School. 

Bom  at  Venice,  1485;  died  at  Rome,  1547.  Sebastiano  Luciani,  called 
del  Piombo,  from  his,  holding  the  office  of  Keeper  of  the  Leaden  Seal,  was 
originally  a painter  and  musician  at  Venice,  where  he  studied  successively  under 
Bellini  and  Giorgione.  His  portraits  in  oil  had  won  him  fame  before  he  was 
invited  to  Rome  by  the  famous  banker,  Agostino  Chigi,  in  1512.  At  this 
time  the  papal  court  was  divided  into  two  strong  parties,  one  led  by  Raphael, 
the  other  by  Michelangelo,  and  the  latter,  feeling  his  own  defects  as  a colorist, 
courted  Sebastiano,  in  hope  that,  by  uniting  Venetian  color  with  his  own  grand 
design,  Raphael  could  be  outdone.  When  Cardinal  Giulio  de  Medici  com- 
missioned Raphael  to  paint  the  “Transfiguration,”  he  also  commissioned 
del  Piombo  to  paint  “Raising  of  Lazarus,”  now  in  the  National  Gallery,  Lon- 
don. The  pictures,  when  finished,  were  exhibited  side  by  side.

which  does  not  conceal  the  luxuriant  reddish  brown  hair.  His  complexion  is 
olive,  and  a white  fine  fluted  collar  is  about  his  neck.  The  following  inscrip-

POLLAJUOLO,  Antonio  del.  Florentine  School. 

Bom  at  Florence,  1429  (?);  died  at  Rome,  1498.  Antonio  and  his  brothe* 
Pietro  were  workers  in  bronze  and  silver  ornaments,  and  also  painters.  It  k 
said  that  Antonio  was  the  first  artist  who  dissected  the  human  body  in  order 
to  know  how  to  represent  it.  Their  most  excellent  productions  represented 
contests  of  strength  and  muscular  action,  such  as  “ Hercules  and  Hydra,”  and 
the  ‘‘Death  of  Antaeus.”  In  painting,  their  model  was  Andrea  del  Castagno. 
Their  masterpiece  is.  without  doubt,  “ St.  Sebastian,”  in  the  National  Gallery. 
“The  Archangel  and  Tobit”  is  in  the  Gallery  of  Turin.  Other  examples  are 
seen  in  the  Galleries  of  Florence,  Berlin,  Munich,  and  Modena.

Infant  upholds  the  globe  with  His  left  hand  and  His  right  arm  encircles  the 
neck  of  the  saint.  The  distant  shores  are  seen  on  either  side  and  the  blue  sky

POUSSIN,  Gaspard.  (Real  name,  Gaspard  Dughet.)  French

and  follower  of  his  brother-in-law,  Nicolas  Poussin,  whose  name  he  adopted. 
Later  he  became  more  individual  in  style.  He  worked  very  rapidly,  some- 
times painting  a large  picture  in  a single  day.  In  the  Palazzo  Borghese, 
Rome,  are  walls  entirely  painted  by  him,  and  in  the  Palazzo  Colonna  are

POUSSIN,  Nicolas.  French  School. 

Born  at  Villeres,  District  of  les  Andelys,  Normandy,  1594,  died  at  Rome 
1665.  History  and  landscape  painter.  Pupil  of  Quentin  Varin  in  Andelys, 
and  of  Neol,  Jouvenet,  Ferdinand  EUe,  and  Lallemont,  in  Paris.  Went  to 
Rome  in  1624,  where  he  studied  with  Duquesnay;  married  the  daughter  of 

139 


Ja;eq.ues  Bughet,  a»d  ad®pted  his  two  sons,  Jean  and  Gaspard,  the  latter  took 
his  fitajme  and  afterwards  rivalled  him  in  fame  as  a painter. 

Ib  1640,  Louis  XIII  sent  M.  de  Chanteloup  to  bring  him  baek  to  Fraoiee. 
Although  the  King  made  him  his  first  painter,  and  showered  honors  upon  hkn, 
Poussin  found  his  position  go  intolerable  on  account  of  the  jealous  intrigues  of 
Vouet,  Fouquieres,  and  Mercier  that  he  returned  to  Rome  on  leave  of  absence. 
The  death  of  Cardinal  Richelieu,  in  1642,  and  of  the  King  in  the  following  year, 
left  him  free  to  remain  in  Rome  the  remainder  of  his  life. 

His  noble  style,  his  skill  in  composition,  his  elegance  in  the  grouping  and 
disposition  of  figures,  and  his  truly  grand  and  poetic  feelmg  in  landscape, 
entitle  him  to  the  first  place  among  painters  of  the  French  school.

PRATT,  Matthew.  American  School. 

Born  at  Philadelphia,  September  23,  1734;  died  in  his  native  city,  Janu- 
ary 6,  1805.  His  first  instmctor  in  art  was  his  maternal  uncle,  James  Clay- 
poole,  whose  works  unfortunately  cannot  be  identified;  that  he  possessed  no 
inconsiderable  skill  and  knowledge  in  his  profession  is  attested  by  the  thorough 
grounding  of  his  pupil.  Pratt,  after  doing  considerable  work  in  Philadelphia, 
sailed  for  London,  in  June,  1764,  accompanying  Miss  SheweU  (whose  uncle 
had  married  Pratt’s  aunt),  and  on  September  2,  1764,  he  gave  her  in  marriage 
to  the  future  President  of  the  Royal  Academy.  After  a residence  of  two  years 
and  a half  with  West,  in  Loudon,  whose  first  American  pupil  he  was,  he  spent 
eighteen  months  in  Bristol,  and  shortly  after  returned  to  Philadelphia,  where 
he  set  up  his  easel  in  the  spring  of  1768.  In  1770,  he  made  a brief  Tusit  to  Ire- 
land, and  painted  several  important  pictures,  among  which  was  a whole  length 

140 


portrait  of  Archdeacon  Isaac  Mann,  in  his  robes,  which  was  exhibited  in  Dublin 
at  the  Irish  Academy.  He  passed  a portion  of  the  year  1772  in  New  York, 
during  which  time  he  painted  a full-length  portrait  of  Cadwalader  Golden  for 
the  Chamber  of  Commerce,  which  is  still  in  possession  of  that  body.  About  the 
same  period  he  painted  the  portraits  of  several  members  of  the  Walton  family. 
His  portrait  of  West  and  wife  are  in  the  Pennsylvania  Academy  of  Fine  Arts, 
Philadelphia,  and  that  city  also  boasts  of  the  earliest  authenticated  likeness  of 
the  great  American  philosopher,  Franklin,  which  is  his  work. 

206  THE  AMERICAN  SCHOOL. 

This  interesting  picture  represents  West’s  painting  room  in  London.  To 
the  left.  West,  with  hat  on,  stands  by  Pratt,  correcting  a drawing.  At  the 
right  of  the  painting,  with  palette  and  brushes  in  hand,  is  another  student  who 
has  turned  to  listen  to  the  words  of  the  master.  In  the  center  are  two  younger 
students,  one  of  whom  is  supposed  to  be  Abraham  Delanoy,  of  New  York,  who 
was  studying  with  West  at  that  time,  and  whose  portrait  by  West  was  recently 
in  the  possession  of  the  De  Peyster  family.  The  picture  was  exhibited  by 
Pratt,  at  the  Old  Spring  Gardens,  in  London,  in  1766,  under  the  title  still 
preserved. 

This  picture  shows  Pratt  to  have  been  an  artist  of  no  ordinary  ability,  as 
it  is  a remarkable  composition  to  have  been  executed  at  so  early  a day  by  an 
American  artist,  and  its  color,  scheme,  and  detail  are  worthy  of  special  notice.

REMBRANDT  VAN  RIJN  (Rembrandt  Harmensz  Van 
Rijn).  Dutch  School. 

Born  at  Leyden,  July  15,  1606.  Buried  in  the  Westerkerk  (Church  of 
the  West)  at  Amsterdam,  October  8,  1669.  He  was  the  son  of  a pros- 

perous miller  of  Leyden  whose  ambition  was  to  see  him  in  one  of  the  learned 
professions.  But  the  boy’s  love  for  art  overcame  all  difficulties  and  oppo- 
sitions, and  he  entered  the  studio  of  Van  Swanenburg  as  a pupil,  and 
later  that  of  Pieter  Lastman.  The  bold  strong  features  of  old  age  had  a fas- 
cination for  Rembrandt,  the  bold  markings,  broad  planes,  and  vigorous  lines 
easily  gave  him  that  clue  to  a mastery  of  expression  which  is  so  characteristic 
of  all  his  works.  In  1631  he  opened  a studio  in  Amsterdam,  and  resided 
there  until  his  death.  In  1634  he  married  Saskia  Van  Uylenborch,  whose 
fair  face  and  form  are  seen  in  many  of  his  portraits,  biblical  and  historical 
pictures.  For  eight  years  fortune  smiled  upon  him;  his  studio  was  crowded 
with  pupils  and  he  had  patronage  far  beyond  his  needs.  But  Saskia  died 
in  1642  and  a gloom  was  cast  over  the  life  of  the  young  painter.  In  the 
development  of  his  art  he  left  not  only  the  impress  of  his  own  individuality 
upon  each  work  by  his  hand,  but  recorded  the  characteristics  of  the  peo- 
ple among  whom  he  lived  with  a vigor  and  vital  force  which  has  never  been 
equaled  and  is  well  illustrated  in  his  portrait  groups,  especially  that  of  the 
Syndics  in  the  Rycks  Museum  at  Amsterdam.  In  1650,  Hendrikje  Stoffels, 
a beautiful  young  girl  from  the  country,  came  to  live  in  his  home  as  house- 
keeper, where  she  remained  during  the  remainder  of  his  life  the  devoted  and 
loving  friend,  watching  over,  and  caring  for  him  tenderly  during  his  last 
days  of  poverty  and  misfortune  until  the  end  came.  Unfortunately,  Rem- 
brandt had  been  too  lavish  in  his  expenditures,  fashion  changed  and  under  the 
Influence  of  French  tastes  for  the  lighter,  smoother,  and  more  elegant  and 
decorative  pictures,  Rembrandt  was  neglected  and  his  more  robust  art  found 
little  favor;  debts  accumulated,  commissions  were  few,  and  at  last  he  was 
declared  a bankrupt  and  his  whole  effects  were  sold  by  auction.  But  the 
artist  knew  his  powers,  and  the  most  splendid  achievements  of  his  life  were 
accomplished  when  he  was  in  direst  poverty  and  extreme  want. 

240  PORTRAIT  OF  A MAN. 

A man  about  forty  years  of  age  wearing  a high  crown,  broad  brim,  black 
hat,  a wide,  white  linen  collar  and  black  habit,  is  seated  a little  to  the  right 
with  the  face  framed  in  long,  dark-brown  hair;  looking  out  of  the  canvas 
the  grave  eyes  meet  yours  with  the  sedate  but  kindly  look  of  one  who  in- 
vites acquaintance.  The  left  hand  partially  concealed  by  his  dress  and  a 
lace  ruff  at  the  wrist  are  seen  in  shadow  at  the  bottom  of  the  canvas. 

Painted  according  to  Dr.  Bode,  about  1640.  Purchased  from  the  Marquis 
of  Lansdowne  in  1883.  Bust.  Life-size.

239  PORTRAIT  GF  A MAN. 

He  is  seen  standing,  wearing  a large  black  hat,  which  casts  a deep  shadow 
over  the  upper  portion  of  his  countenance,  from  which  his  melancholy  eyes 
look  at  the  spectator  with  an  intense  dreamy  expression.  A rich  golden 
brown  gaberdine  covers  his  figure,  which  has  but  little  relief  from  a back- 
ground of  a similar  tone.

This  picture  came  from  the  collection  formed  by  Sir  William  Knighton. 
Burt.,  physician  to  King  George  IV. 

Sir  William  Knighton,  besides  being  a very  eminent  medical  man,  was  an 
accomplished  amateur  artist.  He  was  a personal  friend  of  George  IV,  whilst 
Prince  Regent,  and  his  principal  adviser  in  the  formation  of  the  collection  of 
Dutch  pictures  at  Buckingham  Palace,  now  the  property  of  the  Crovm. 

His  own  collection  was  kept  intact  until  within  a few  years,  when  it  was 
sold  at  the  death  of  his  son,  who  left  no  successor;  the  baronetcy  becoming 
extinct.

241  THE  ADORATION  OF  THE  SHEPHERDS. 

The  shepherds  are  kneeling  around  the  Infant  Saviour  "Wlio  lies  upon  a 
couch  of  straw  in  the  interior  of  a stable,  wrapt  in  the  darkness  and  mystery 
of  night.  As  in  the  “ Notte  ” of  Correggio,  a supernatural  light  emanates  from 
the  Infant,  illuminating  the  surrounding  figures.  The  one  in  deep  shadow, 
kneeling,  in  the  foreground,  is  forcibly  relieved  against  the  principal  group. 
A man  bearing  a lantern  which  glimmers  in  the  darkness  has  just  entered  the 
stable  from  the  right  followed  by  another  group  of  figures,  one  of  whom  bears 
another  lantern.

London.

237  THE  MILLS. 

A sombre  landscape  of  a warm,  brownish  tone,  heavy  with  rain,  the  dull 
gray  clouds  are  reflected  in  the  waters  of  the  canal,  and  hang  over  the  distant 
landscape,  shadowing  almost  to  obscurity  the  long  line  of  mills  that  bordei 
the  artificial  stream.  But  the  old  red  mill,  which  stands  in  the  foreground 
, with  its  tiled  roof,  massive  walls,  and  arched  gateway,  the  mo\'ing  figures,  tin 
quay,  and  the  boats  which  drift  upon  the  waters  of  the  canal,  are  in  a p>eri>etua

golden  glow,  despite  the  heavy  atmosphere  of  the  low  lands  of  Holland.  “The 
old  mill,  in  which  Rembrandt  was  born,”  is  inscribed  upon  the  back  of  this 
picture.  Formerly  in  the  Cartright  collection;  described  by  Vosmaer  in  his 
list  of  Rembrandt’s  effects:  “A  picture  of  houses.”

REYNOLDS,  Sir  Joshua,  P.R.A.  English  School. 

First  President  of  the  Royal  Academy.  Born  in  Devonshire,  at  Plympton 
Earl  1723,  where  his  father  was  a schoolmaster.  Died  at  London,  1792. 
'‘Done  by  Joshua  out  of  pure  idleness,”  wrote  his  father  over  a drawing  which 
the  boy  had  done  in  his  exercise-book.  “While  I am  doing  this,”  wrote 
Joshua  himself  of  his  drawing,  a few  years  later,  “I  am  the  happiest  creature 
alive.”  When  he  was  eighteen  he  was  sent  to  London  to  study  under  Hudson. 
After  two  years  he  had  made  such  good  progress  as  to  estrange  his  master. 
After  a year  spent  at  Plymouth  he  went  to  London  again;  but  upon  his 
father’s  death  he  returned,  in  1746,  to  Plymouth,  where  he  won  the  friend- 
ship of  Lord  Edgcumbe,  who  introduced  him  to  Captain  Keppel,  who 
offered  to  take  him  to  Italy  on  board  his  own  ship,  the  “Centurion.”  In 
May,  1749,  they  set  sail,  and  till  the  end  of  the  year  Reynolds  stayed  with  the 
Governor  of  Minorca,  painting  portraits.  For  two  years  he  studied  in 
Rome.  From  Rome  he  went  to  Parma,  Florence,  and  Venice.  At  Parma 
he  came  under  Correggio’s  influence;  at  Venice  he  studied  Titian.  “To 
possess  a real,  fine  picture  by  that  great  master,”  he  once  said,  “I  would  will- 
ingly ruin  myself.” 

Reynolds  returned  to  London  in  1752.  He  settled  first  in  St.  Martin’s 
Lane;  afterwards  in  Great  Newport  Street,  and  finally  (from  1760  onward) 
in  Leicester  Square,  where  his  house  (No.  47)  may  still  be  seen — nearly  oppo- 
site to  the  site  of  Hogarth’s.  From  this  time  forward  Reynold’s  life  was  one 
unbroken  success.  Other  painters  arose  from  time  to  time  to  divide  his  popu- 
larity. Opie,  Gainsborough,  and  Hoppner;  but  Reynolds’  supremacy  was 
never  seriously  threatened.  In  1768,  when  the  Royal  Academy  was  founded, 
he  was  elected  President  by  acclamation,  and  was  knighted  by  the  king — an 
honor  which  has  ever  since  been  offered  to  the  holder  of  that  office.

ROUSSEAU,  Pierre  Etienne  Theodore.  Barbizon  School. 

Born  at  Paris,  April  15,  1812;  died  at  Barbizon,  near  Fontainebleau, 
December  22,  1867.  Landscape  painter;  pupil  of  Remond  (1826)  and  of 
Lethiere.  Showed  himself  a true  “naturalist”  in  his  first  picture  (1826),  and 
up  to  1848 — when  his  works,  after  being  for  thirteen  years  excluded  from  the 
Salon  by  the  Academical  Jury,  then  abolished,  were  readmitted — fought  the 
battle  of  naturalism  with  varying  success,  and  founded  the  modem  French 
school  of  landscape  painting,  of  which  he  was  one  of  the  chief  glories.  Albert 
Wolfe  said  of  Rousseau:  “He  occupied  the  highest  place,  because  he  was  the 
most  perfect  master.  The  grand  aspect  of  landscape  and  its  tenderness  are 
equally  familiar  to  him.  He  renders  with  the  same  mastery  the  smile  of 
creation  and  its  terrors,  the  broad  open  plain  and  the  mysterious  forest;  the 
limpid,  sunb right  sky  or  the  heaping  of  the  clouds  put  to  flight  by  storms; 
the  terrible  aspect  of  landscape  or  those  replete  with  grace.  He  has  under- 
stood all,  rendered  all,  with  equal  genius.  The  great  contemporary’’  painters 
have  each  a particular  stamp,  Corot  painting  the  grace;  Millet  the  hidden 
voice;  Jules  Dupr6,  the  majestic  strength.  Theodore  Rousseau  has  been  by 
turns  as  much  a poet  as  Corot,  as  melancholy  as  Millet,  as  a-wful  as  Dupre;  he 
is  the  most  complete,  for  he  embraces  landscape  art  absolutely.”

RUBENS,  Peter  Paul.  Flemish  School. 

Born  at  Siegen,  June  28,  1577,  baptized  (the  day  after  his  birth)  on 
the  festival  of  Saints  Peter  and  Paul  (hence  his  Christian  name) , is  the  chief 
glory  of  the  Flemish  school,  and  one  of  the  great  masters  of  the  world.  This 
remarkable  man,  scholar,  painter  and  diplomatist,  was  descended  from  two 
good  families.  Flis  father,  Jan  Rubens,  was  an  Alderman  of  Antwerp,  and 
his  mother,  Maria  Pypelinckx,  belonged  to  a distinguished  family  of  the 
same  city.  Rubens’  talent  for  drawing  early  led  him  to  decide  upon  paint- 
ing as  a profession.  He  entered  the  school  of  Adam  Van  Noort,  with  whom  he 
remained  four  years.  Another  four  years  was  passed  in  the  studio  of  Otto 
or  Otho  Vaenius,  whose  cultivation  of  mind  and  taste  was  of  more  advan- 
tage to  Rubens  than  his  instruction  in  painting.  In  1598  he  was  admitted 
to  the  Guild  of  Painters  in  Antwerp;  his  father  had  died,  and  his  mother 
had  returned  to  that  city.  In  1600  he  went  to  Venice  and  studied  the 
works  of  Titian  and  Paul  Veronese.  For  eight  years  Rubens  was  in  the 
service  of  the  Duke  of  Mantua.  An  excellent  Latin  scholar,  he  was  also 
proficient  in  French,  Italian,  English,  German,  and  Dutch.  These  gifts  pro- 
cured him  diplomatic  employment.  In  1603  he  was  sent  on  a mission  to 
Spain.  In  1608  news  of  his  mother’s  illness  reached  him,  and  he  hastened 
home,  when  he  was  appointed  Court  painter  to  the  Archduke  Albert,  then 
Governor  of  the  Netherlands.  In  1622  he  visited  Paris  at  the  invitation  of 
Marie  de’  Medici  (a  sister  of  the  Duchess  of  Mantua).  In  1628  he  was  sent  on 
a mission  to  Philip  IV  of  Spain,  and  in  the  following  year  he  was  sent  to 
Charles  I of  England.  Here  he  was  knighted,  and  was  given  an  honorary 
degTee  by  the  University  of  Cambridge.  But  wherever  he  went,  Rubens  con- 
tinued to  paint,  and  his  diplomacy  he  considered  as  a mere  recreation.  “The 
painter  Rubens,”  he  is  reported  to  have  said  of  himself,  “amuses  himself  with 
being  ambassador.”  How  hard  he  labored  is  known  by  the  enormous  number 
of  his  works — between  2,000  and  3,000.  In  1609  Rubens  married  his  first  wife, 
Isabella  Brant,  who  died  in  1626,  leaving  two  sons,  to  whom  Gevartius  was 
tutor.  It  was  in  1630  that  he  married  Helena  Fourment,  who  was  at  that 
time  but  sixteen  years  old.  She  bore  him  five  children,  survived  him,  and 
married  again.  Both  his  wives  so  often  served  him  for  models  that  their 
forms  and  faces  are  familiar  to  the  world.  He  died  May  30,  1640,  and  was 
buried  in  his  private  chapel  in  the  Church  of  St.  Jacques,  at  Antwerp,  which 
is  decorated  with  a magnificent  work  of  his  own. 

48  RETURN  OF  THE  HOLY  FAMILY  FROM  EGYPT. 

This  admirable  picture  was  painted  for  the  Church  of  the  Jesuits  at  Ant- 
werp prior  to  1620,  after  Rubens’  return  from  Italy,  and  before  he  had  called  in 
the  aid  of  assistants.  It  was  done  immediately  after  finishing  the  famous 

151 


•‘Crucifixion”  in  the  Cathedral  of  Antwerp,  and  before  the  execution  of  its  com* 
panion  picture,  that  other  masterpiece,  “ The  Descent  from  the  Cross;”  or,  in 
other  words,  at  the  period  when  this  prince  of  painters  produced  his  greatest 
works.  Grandeur  of  style  and  power  of  coloring  are  equally  the  characteristics 
of  “The  Return  from  Egypt.”  Reference  is  made  to  it  in  the  catalogue  of  a 
sale.  May  20,  1777,  of  the  pictures  taken  from  churches  and  convents  of  the 
Jesuits,  at  Antwerp,  suppressed" by  the  decree  of  the  Emperor  Joseph  II; “Re- 
turn from  Egypt.  The  Infant  Jesus,  the  Holy  Virgin,  and  St.  Joseph.  Tha

al  this  sale  by  the  rich  banker  Dannoot,  and  is  thus  described  in  the  catalogue  of 
S»e  Dannoot  sale  (page  27,  No.  61) , held  at  Brussels  in  1S29.  when  it  was  bought 
by  Mr.  Buchanan,  one  of  the  most  skillful  London  experts:  “The  Return  from 
Egypt  The  Holy  Virgin  and  St.  Joseph  hold  by  the  hand  the  Redeemer  of 
the  World.  The  mother  looks  with  solicitude  on  the  Divine  Infant,  'fhe 
Child  raises  His  eyes  to  her,  and  seems  to  announce  to  her  a happier  destiny. 
The  Father  from  heaven  contemplates  this  scene  with  tenderness.  An 
admirable  picture,  well  composed,  and  painted  -nith  decision.  It  cannot  be 
seen  without  exciting  a sentiment  of  respect  and  devotion.”  It  is  also  men- 
tioned in  Smith’s  Catalogue,  Vol.  2,  page  21,  No.  71.  Smith’s  description  is 
from  Bolswert’s  engraving,  where  the  engraver  has  introduced  the  Holy 
Spirit,  and  an  aureole  around  the  head  of  St.  Joseph,  which  never  existed  in 
the  original;  and  is  described  in  the  Life  of  P.  P.  Rubens,  by  I.  F.  Michel, 
Brussels,  1771:  “At  the  end  of  the  small  nave  at  the  right  is  another  piece  by 
the  same  master,  representing  the  Virgin  and  St.  Joseph  leading  the  Infant 
Jesus  by  the  hand.  Although  the  composition  is  unpretentious,  the  feeling  in 
the  heads  and  the  beauty  of  the  flesh  tints  cause  it  to  be  much  admired.”  It 
is  also  mentioned  in  all  the  other  guide-books  for  amateurs  in  Belgium,  etc., 
and  in  the  “Histoire  de  P.  P.  Rubens,”  by  Andrew  Van  Hasselt,  page  248, 
No.  214,  and  in  the  “Dictionary  of  Painters,”  by  A.  Siret,  page  787,  2d  edition. 
This  picture  was  transferred  from  wood  to  canvas  between  1879  and  1882  and 
was  seriously  injured  at  that  time  in  an  attempt  at  restoration.

49  THE  HOLY  FAMILY. 

The  Virgin  is  seated  at  the  right  dressed  in  a red  robe,  with  an  under-skirt 
of  a deeper  tone  which  is  folded  across  her  lap;  from  underneath,  the  white 
drapery  falls  to  her  feet.  Her  left  arm  is  extended  and  rests  gracefully  on  the 
folds  of  a dark  green  mantle  which  has  been  laid  over  the  back  of  her  seat. 
The  Infant  Christ  standing  upon  His  mother’s  knee,  with  one  arm  thrown 
about  Her  neck  and  the  other  extended  downwards,  turns  His  head  in  loi’ing 
greeting  to  St.  John.  Behind  the  Mother  and  Child  is  St.  Elizabeth,  her  right 
hand  gently  touching  the  Infant’s  arm,  and  above,  at  the  right,  St.  Joseph 
contemplates  the  scene.  At  the  left  of  the  composition,  St.  Francis  d’ Assisi 
in  the  brown  habit  of  the  Franciscan  order  with  lus  arms  crossed  over  hi? 
breast,  bends  forward  with  an  expression  of  rapt  devotion.  At  his  feet  is  tht

33  CAMBYSES’  PUNISHMENT  OF  AN  UNJUST  JUDGE. 

It  is  a tradition  that  the  Persian  king,  Cambyses,  caused  an  unjust  and 
prevaricating  judge  to  be  skinned  alive,  and  then  appointed  his  son  to  fill  the 
chair  made  vacant  by  the  death  of  his  father,  and  obliged  him  to  sit  upon  a

SCHEFFER,  Ary.  French  School. 

Born  at  Dordrecht,  Feb.  10,  1795;  died  at  Argenteuil,  June  15,  185S 
History  and  portrait  painter;  son  of  Johann  Baptist  Scheffer;  pupil  of 
Gu4rin.  Sympathizing  neither  with  the  classic  school  represented  by  his 
master,  nor  the  romantic  led  by  Gericault  and  Delacroix,  Scheffer  took  up  a 
class  of  subjects  which  showed  his  sympathy  with  the  cause  of  freedom,  such 
as  the  Suliote  women,  an  episode  of  the  Greek  war,  and  the  Battle  of  Morat. 
Influenced  by  Ingres,  he  sought  and  obtained  greater  purity  of  form,  and 
painted  subjects  from  Goethe  and  Byron.  In  1836  he  was  appointed  art 
instructor  to  the  Orleans  family,  and  directed  the  studies  of  Princess  Marie 
in  sculpture.  In  1836  he  accompanied  the  Due  d’Orleans  and  General  Bau- 
brand,  whose  widow  he  afterwards  married,  to  the  siege  of  Antwerp,  and  after 
his  return  painted  several  military  episodes  for  Versailles.  Between  1835  and 
1848  he  produced  his  greatest  works,  the  “Christus  Consolator  and  Judex,” 
the  “Francesca”  and  the  “Mignon.”  When  the  Revolution  broke  out, 
Scheffer  assisted  the  King  and  his  family  in  their  escape  from  Paris,  and  then 
went  to  Holland  and  England  for  rest.  The  coup  d'etat  of  1852,  which  gave 
Louis  Napoleon  the  throne,  was  a blow  to  his  hopes  which  finally  disgusted  him 
with  politics,  from  which  he  withdrew  altogether.  Five  years  later,  after  a last 
visit  to  England,  he  lost  his  friends  Manin  and  the  Duchesse  d’Orleans,  to 
whom  he  was  much  attached.  After  attending  the  funeral  of  the  latter,  he 
returned  much  broken  to  France,  and  shortly  after  died. 

568  PETER’S  REPENTANCE. 

At  the  right  of  the  picture  is  the  figure  of  Our  Saviour  in  a white  habit, 
his  hands  are  bound  with  a heavy  cord  and  his  face  is  turned  to  the  left  looking 
reproachfully  at  Peter  who  with  his  hands  clasped  and  raised  before  him  is 
fleeing  from  the  place;  a soldier  in  a steel  helmet  stands  behind  the  figure  of 
Christ,  and  his  disciples  crowd  forward  raising  their  hands  in  indignation. 
Large  columns  and  a piece  of  sky  form  the  background.  The  figures  are  life  • 
size  seen  to  the  knees

In  the  year  1857,  the  late  Mr.  Albert  Haverneyer,  of  this  city,  being  then 
in  Berlin,  called  on  Baron  von  Humboldt  and  requested  him  to  sit  for  his 
portrait  to  the  eminent  artist,  Julius  Schrader.  The  Baron  was  obliged  to 
decline  the  frequent  and  urgent  solicitations  of  his  many  admirers  for  a similar 
favor,  but  having  in  the  United  States  many  personal  friends  and  acquaint- 
ances whom  he  thought  would  be  gratified  to  see  a good  portrait  of  him, 
cheerfully  consented  to  sit;  and  taking  from  his  table  a number  of  sketches 
made  of  himself,  he  selected  one  having  in  the  background  Chimborazo,  and 
said,  “ I will  be  painted  sitting  here,”  designating  the  spot  with  Chimborazo 
in  the  distance.  The  artist  commenced  the  picture  at  once,  and  at  its  com- 
pletion the  Baron  expressed  himself  as  delighted  with  it.  This  was  the  las' 
portrait,  from  life,  of  Humboldt.

SHEE,  Sir  Martin  Archer.  English  School. 

Born  at  Dublin,  1769;  died  at  Brighton,  1850.  He  came  from  an  old 
Irish  family,  and  it  was  Burke  who  introduced  him,  when  he  came  from  Dublin 
to  London  in  1789,  to  Reynolds.  His  own  suavity  and  good  manners  were 
even  better  introductions  to  the  portrait  painter’s  clientele,  and  he  soon  met 
^th  distinguished  patrons.  In  1789  he  was  elected  A.R.A.,  and  having  mar- 

159 


ried,  moved  into  Romney’s  old  house  in  Cavendish  Square.  In  1800  he  be- 
came R.A.,  and  upon  the  death  of  Sir  Thomas  Lawrence,  in  1830,  he  was

praise  from  Byron  in  his  “English  Bards  and  Scotch  Reviewers’’: 

" And  here  let  Shee  and  genius  find  a place, 

Whose  pen  and  pencil  yield  an  equal  grace: 

While  honors,  doubly  merited,  attend 
The  poet’s  rival,  but  the  painter’s  friend.”

Bom  at  Norwich,  1794;  died  at  London,  1859.  He  was  for  three  years 
a pupil  of  “Old  Crome,”  and  then  went  to  London  and  exhibited  his  first  pic-

STEEN,  Jan  Havicksz,  DutchSchool. 

Born  at  Leyden  about  1626;  died  there,  1679.  He  loved  a jovial,  roister- 
ing life,  and  as  a tavern  keeper  was  able  to  indulge  himself.  It  is  remarkable 
that  in  his  half  drunken  state  he  could  have  executed  two  hundred  works  of  so 
much  merit.  He  studied  first  with  Nicholas  Knupfer,  and  Van  Goyen,  whose 
daughter  he  married  in  1649,  and  developed  under  the  influence  of  Frans  Hals 
and  Adrian  Van  Ostade.  He  was  fond  of  representing  the  humorous  and 
ludicrous  scenes  incident  to  the  hfe  trhich  he  led,  degenerating  often  into 
vulgarity.  His  pictures  may  be  seen  in  nearly  all  of  the  large  Continental 
Galleries.

Near  the  entrance  to  an  old  tavern  where  the  sign  of  an  efepfianC  bangs 
over  the  door  and  a banner  is  flung  to  the  breeze  from  a window  above,  happy 
people  look  down  upon  a young  man  standing  upon  a tub  fiddling  for  the 
dancers  in  their  merry  sport,  and  a boatload  of  hilarious  souls  are  just  pushing 
from  the  shore,  bidding  adieu  to  a friend  who  raises  his  cap  with  his  right  hand 
and  extends  his  left  with  a full  mug  of  beer  in  a parting  salute.  A cool,  cloudy 
sky,  an  arched  bridge  over  a stream  of  water,  a group  of  trees  in  the  center, 
with  the  old  tavern  at  the  left,  form  the  landscape;  and  in  the  immediate 
middle  foreground  is  a family  group  with  a basket  of  refreshments,  and  a 
black  dog  in  repose.

STUART,  Gilbert.  American  School. 

Born  at  Narragansett,  Rhode  Island,  December  3,  1755;  died  Boston, 
July  27,  1828.  After  some  unaided  efforts  he  received  instruction  from 
Cosmo  Alexander,  a Scotch  portrait  painter,  whom  he  accompanied  to  Scot- 
land in  1772.  The  death  of  his  master  left  Stuart  to  shift  for  himself,  and 
after  stmggling  a while  at  the  University  of  Glasgow,  he  returned  home.  In 
1775  he  went  again  to  England,  where  he  found  a friend  in  Benjamin  West, 
whose  studio  he  entered  as  a pupil,  but  soon  became  an  assistant  to  his  master. 
In  1785  he  set  up  a studio  of  his  O’.vn  in  London,  achieving  marked  popularity 
and  financial  success.  He  visited  Ireland  in  1788,  where  he  was  received  with 
great  favor,  and  painted  the  portraits  of  many  distinguished  persons,  and 
returned  to  America  in  1792.  Soon  after  his  arrival  in  New  Y^ork  the  Duke  of 
Kent  offered  to  send  a ship  of  war  for  him  if  he  would  gr  to  Nova  Scotia  and 
paint  his  portrait,  but  he  declined  the  offer.  Among  liis  sitters  in  Europe 
were  three  Kings:  Louis  XVI,  George  III,  and  George  IV  while  Prince  of 
Wales.  He  painted  also  Alderman  Boydell,  John  Kemble,  Sir  Joshua  Rey- 
nolds, Benjamin  West,  and  many  other  distinguished  artbts.  Six  Presidents 

164 


of  the  Liiited  States  sat  to  him  for  their  portraits,  viz.:  George  Washington, 
John  Adams,  Thomas  Jefferson,  James  Madison,  James  Monroe,  and  John 
Quincy  Adams.  After  working  two  years  in  New  York,  Philadelphia,  and 
Washington,  Stuart  settled  in  Boston,  where  he  resided  the  remainder  of  his 
life.  Stuart  was  gifted  vdth  a perception  which  enabled  him  to  select  the  true 
lines  of  thought  and  character  of  his  sitter,  which  he  rendered  without  hesita- 
tion. A collection  of  two  hundred  and  fifteen  of  his  works  was  exhibited  in 
the  Boston  Athenaeum  soon  after  his  decease,  for  the  benefit  of  his  family, 
which  realized  a considerable  sum.

dark-gray  cloth  and  other  objects,  which  had  been  painted  over  it  in  an 
attempt  to  conceal  or  repair  an  injurj^  to  the  canvas.  The  painting  has 
recently  been  cleaned  and  these  objects  removed,  leaving  the  composition 
the  same  as  when  the  picture  left  the  easel  of  the  artist. 

In  a spacious  old  kitchen  with  heaiy  oak  beams,  at  the  right  a newly 
dressed  beef  is  suspended  with  a bowl  beneath  to  catch  the  drippings;  be- 
hind a man  and  a woman  are  engaged  in  conversation.  In  the  center  above 
there  is  a window  and  underneath  it  a door,  through  which  a man  is  stepping 
with  a bowl  in  his  outstretched  hands.  At  the  left  a woman  in  a bright  red 
waist,  white  apron,  and  dark  green  skirt,  stands  by  an  open  well  with  an 
earthen  pitcher  resting  on  the  curb.  She  is  surrounded  with  kitchen  uten- 
sils, a shining  brass  kettle,  jars,  and  a small  table,  covered  with  vegetables. 
A white  spotted  dog  stands  in  the  near  foreground,  and  a bright  red  liver, 

166 


which  hangs  from  a beam  near  the  middle  center  of  the  picture,  strikes  a 
high  color  note.

TENIERS,  David  (the  Younger).  Flemish  School. 

Born  at  Antwerp,  1610;  died  at  Perck,  near  Brussels,  1690.  The  most 
eminent  genre  painter  of  Belgium.  He  was  instructed  by  his  father,  but 
was  very  much  influenced  by  Rubens.  His  first  wife  was  the  daughter 
of  Jan  Brueghel,  and  the  second,  Isabelle  de  Fren,  a daughter  of  the  Secre- 
tary of  State  for  Brabant.  He  was  much  favored  by  the  Archduke  Leopold 
William,  and  by  Don  Juan,  of  Austria;  he  excelled  in  representations  of  the 
alchemist,  fairs,  and  festivals  of  all  sorts.  His  touch  was  light  and  brilliant, 
his  coloring  exquisitely  beautiful. 

Teniers,  though  a Fleming  by  birth,  belongs  rather  to  the  Dutch  school 
in  style,  being  one  of  the  principal  genre  painters,  of  whom  most  of  the  other 
leading  masters  are  Dutch.  The  place  of  Teniers  in  art  history  is  that  he 
was  par  excellence  the  painter  of  the  pleasures  of  the  ale-house  and  card- 
table.  He  was  refined  in  person,  enjoyed  the  highest  patronage,  and  was 
the  friend  of  courtiers  and  princes.  Yet  he  remained  throughout  his  life 
the  painter  of  the  pot-house. 

77  A MARRIAGE  FESTIVAL. 

The  foreground  is  occupied  with  peasants  who  are  dancing  to  the  music 
of  a bagpipe.  At  the  right  and  behind  under  the  trees  a multitude  of  people, 
in  hilarious  enjoyment  of  the  wedding  feast,  are  seated  at  tables  which  ex- 
tend to  the  door  of  the  farm-house.  In  the  middle  distance  at  the  left  two 
men  are  quarreling  and  friends  of  each  are  seen  coming  to  the  rescue.  Public 
buildings  and  a church-spire  rise  from  the  village  in  the  distance  into  a 
sunny  evening  sky.

75  THE  TEMPTATION  OF  ST.  ANTHONY. 

St.  Anthony,  seated  at  a table  in  the  center  of  a spacious  cave,  lighted 
from  an  opening  to  the  sky  at  the  left  of  the  spectator,  in  rapt  devotion, 
with  his  open  Bible  resting  on  a skull,  a jar  of  water,  and  the  exalted  cross 
before  him,  turns  his  head  at  the  instigation  of  a fiend  in  monkish  garb  to 
a beautiful  woman,  led  by  an  imp  in  human  shape  into  his  oresence.  At 
the  right,  a group  of  gnomes  with  monstrous  forms  and  maeous  mien,  sur- 
round a woman  who  sleeps;  one  is  mounted  on  a boar;  others  are  in  tha 

167 


form  of  bats,  frogs,  and  flying  fish,  and  two  mounted  elves  float  in  the  air 
above.  St.  Anthony  clasps  his  hands  in  agony  of  spirit.

the  great  hall  at  Blenheim,  the  ceilings  and  walls  of  the  hall  at  Greenwich 
Hospital,  and  a salon  and  hall  at  Moor  Park,  Herts.  He  was  knighted 
by  George  I,  the  first  native  painter,  it  is  said,  to  receive  that  distinction. 
In  1724  he  endeavored  to  found  a Royal  Academy  of  Art,  and  failing,  opened 
a drawing  academy  in  his  own  house.

the  decadence  of  Venetian  Art,  though  he  was  far  from  being  so  as  a colorist. 
He  has  been  rightly  called  the  last  decorative  painter  of  the  Venetian  School.

great  technical  skill  and  inexhaustible  resources  as  a colorist,  and  other

TURNER,  Joseph  Mallord  William.  English  School. 

Born  in  Maiden  Lane,  Covent  Garden,  London,  1775;  died,  1851.  He 
was  the  son  of  a barber,  and  his  father  intended  him  for  Iris  own  profession. 
Of  his  earlier  sketches,  made  in  pencil  and  India  ink  when  he  was  a boy,  a 
large  proportion  consists  of  careful  studies  of  stranded  boats,  and  different 
parts  of  old  Dutch  shipping.  He  hired  himself  out  every  evening  to  wash 
in  skies  in  india  ink  in  other  people’s  drawings,  at  half  a crown  a night,  get- 
ting his  supper  into  the  bargain.  It  was  in  water  color  that  Turner  first 
painted.  By  1789  he  began  to  paint  in  oils,  and  this  great  genius,  who  now 
holds  the  first  place  in  English  landscape  art,  entered  the  Royal  Academy 
as  a student  at  the  age  of  thirteen,  and  under  the  prevailing  influence  of  the 
day  studied  the  works  of  Claude  Lorrain,  the  Poussins,  Salvator  Rosa,  and 
other  classical  painters.  A close  observer  and  diligent  student,  nature 
early  revealed  to  his  mind  an  illimitable  source  of  glorious  tmths,  whicli 
left  no  room  for  influences,  methods,  or  conceits,  other  than  those  which 
his  unerring  accuracy  of  perception  led  him  to  fonnulate  for  the  perfect 
rendering  of  material  loveliness  with  unrivaled  precision.  Ruskin  says: 
“The  great  distinctive  passion  of  Turner’s  nature — that  which  separates 
him  from  all  other  modern  landscape  painters — is  his  sjunpathy  with  sorrow, 
deepened  by  his  continual  sense  of  the  power  of  death.  Colossal  in  power, 
he  was  also  tender  and  delicate  in  harmony  of  tint  and  subtlety  of  drawing. 
He  had  a perfect  grasp  of  English  scenerjq  and  shrank  from  no  labor  in 
expressing  details.  His  Yorkshire  drawings  are  peculiarly  rich  and  varied 
in  composition,  the  rock  and  hill  forms  being  marvelously  accurate,  while 

172 


his  skies  and  effects  of  mist  are  exquisitely  rendered.  Glorious  in  conception 
— unfathomable  in  knowledge — solitary  in  power — with  the  elements  waiting 
upon  his  will,  and  the  night  and  morning  obedient  to  his  call,  sent  as  a prophet 
of  God  to  reveal  to  men  the  mysteries  of  a universe;  standing  like  the  great 
angel  of  the  Apocalypse,  clothed  with  a cloud,  and  with  a rainbow  upon  his 
head,  and  with  the  sun  and  stars  given  int  i his  hand.”

enlivened  by  groups  of  men,  women,  sailors,  and  horses.  Painted  about 
1812-14.  Purchased  in  1851  by  John  Miller,  of  Liverpool,  for  300  guineas. 
A letter  from  John  Ruskin,  dated  November  22,  1852,  says:  “I  once  bid 
up  to  £300  for  it,  but  it  went  higher,  and  I had  no  more  to  give.”  Mr. 
Miller  exhibited  it  at  Manchester  in  1857,  and  at  his  sale  in  1858  it  was  bought 
in  at  £430  by  his  daughter,  who  exhibited  it  in  1885  at  the  Royal  Academy.

The  entrance  to  the  Grand  Canal  with  gondolas,  fishing  boats  and 
barges  decked  in  brilliant  colors,  resting  in  the  broad  light  of  a sunny  day  in 
Venice.  Santa  Maria  della  Salute,  and  the  Dogana  Vecchia  are  at  the  right,

boats  and  figures  in  the  foregroimd  to  the  old  city  in  the  dim  distance  which 
mingles  in  a mysterious  way  with  the  light  stratus  clouds  which  rise  from 
the  horizon  to  fill  the  center  of  the  sky  and  drift  up  into  the  clear  deep  blue 
above.

341  THE  WHALE  SHIP. 


“Hurrah  for  the  good  ship  Erebus! 
Another  Fish.” 


{Vide  Beale’s  Voyage.) 

A white,  phantom-like  ship,  under  full  sail,  is  seen  emerging  through 
the  misty  atmosphere  into  view,  and  a large  whale,  which  has  just  been 
harpooned,  rears  its  huge  head  from  the  sea  in  the  foreground  and  is  spouting 
water  stained  with  blood;  with  its  tail  it  has  overturned  one  of  the  four 
boats  put  out  for  its  capture.  The  picture  is  luminous  and  lovely  in  color, 
with  a variety  of  hues  in  both  sky  and  water  which  are  infinitely  beautiful. 
This  painting  was  purchased  by  Dr.  Munro,  of  Novar,  one  of  Turner’s  earliest 
patrons,  at  the  R.  A.  Exhibition  in  1846.  Re-sold  to  Sir  Francis  Seymour 
Hadcn,  1884,  from  whom  it  was  acquired  by  the  Museum  for  the  Wolfe 
Gal’ery  in  1896.  (It  was  exhibited  at  the  Royal  Academy  Exhibition  of 
Masters  in  1892.)  It  has  never  been  engraved.

Born  at  Heemskerk,  1498;  died  at  Haarlem,  1574.  (Called  Martin 
Heemskerk.)  His  works  are  not  numerous.  His  manner  was  hard,  dry

‘,of  the  individual.  His  habit  is  black  and  upon  his  head  is  a large  black 
hat.  The  face  is  turned  slightly  to  the  left  into  a full  broad  light,  and  the 
deep  dark  eyes  look  directly  into  those  of  the  spectator.  The  flesh  is  leathery 
in  quality,  but  it  is  boldly  modeled  and  full  of  vital  energy.

VELAZQUEZ,  Diego  Rodriguez  de  Silva  y,  Spanish  School. 

Born  at  Seville,  1599;  died  at  Madrid,  1660.  Both  his  parents  were 
of  noble  blood — his  father’s  name  being  Silva,  his  mother’s  Velazquez.  His 

175 


talent  for  drawing  quickly  showed  itself.  He  studied  first  with  Herrera 
el  Viejo,  a painter  of  Seville,  his  second  master  being  Pacheco, whose  daughter 
he  married  in  1618,  and  whose  house,  says  one  of  the  Spanish  historians, 
was  “the  golden  prison  of  painting’’;  and  it  was  here  that  Velazquez  met 
Cervantes  and  obtained  his  first  introduction  to  the  brilliant  circle  in  which 
he  himself  was  to  shine.  In  Pacheco’s  company  he  went,  in  1622,  to  Madrid, 
returning  one  year  later  at  the  request  of  Olivares,  who  persuaded  the  King 
to  sit  to  Velazquez  for  his  portrait.  The  portrait  was  a complete  success, 
and  the  painter  stepped  at  once  into  fame  and  favor.  From  the  time  of 
this  first  portrait  of  Philip  IV  onward,  the  life  of  Velazquez  was  one  of 
long  triumph.  He  was  made  in  succession  Painter  to  the  King,  Keeper 
of  the  Wardrobe,  Usher  of  the  Royal  Chamber,  and  Chamberlain;  and 
offices  were  also  found  for  his  friends  and  relations.  When  Charles  I, 
then  Prince  of  Wales,  visited  Madrid,  in  162.3,  Velazquez  painted  his 
portrait.  The  Duke  of  Buckingham  was  also  his  friend,  and  Velazquez 
saw  something  too  of  Rubens,  when  the  latter  came  on  his  diplomatic 
mission  to  Madrid.  In  1629  he  traveled  with  recommendations  from 
the  King,  and  wherever  he  went — Venice,  Ferrara,  Rome,  Naples — he  was 
received  with  all  the  honors  accorded  to  princes.  His  second  visit  to  Italy 
was  in  1649.  At  Rome  he  painted  the  portrait  of  the  Pope  (Innocent  X), 
which  made  so  great  a mark  that  it  was  carried  in  triumphal  procession, 
like  Cimabue’s  picture  of  old.  His  royal  master,  however,  became  im- 
patient for  his  return,  and  he  hurried  back  to  Madrid  in  16.51.  On  his 
return  he  was  given  fresh  honors  and  offices — especially  that  of  Quarter 
Master,  whose  duty  it  was  to  superintend  the  personal  lodgement  of  the 
King  during  excursions.  It  was  the  duties  of  this  office  which  were  the 
immediate  cause  of  his  death.  He  accompanied  the  King  to  the  conference 
at  the  “Island  of  Pheasants,”  which  led  to  the  marriage  of  Louis  XIV  with 
the  Infanta  Maria  Teresa.  There  is  a picture  of  him  at  "I'ersailles  by  the 
French  artist  Lebrun,  which  was  painted  on  this  occasion.  The  portrait, 
somber  and  cadaverous-looking,  was,  no  doubt,  true  to  life;  and  when 
Velazquez  returned  to  Madrid  it  was  found  that  his  exertions  in  arranging 
the  royal  journey  had  sowm  the  seeds  of  a fever,  from  which,  after  a week’s 
illness,  he  died.  Seven  days  later  his  ■nufe  died  of  grief,  and  was  buried  at 
his  side. 

270  VELAZQUEZ. 

He  is  between  thirty  and  forty  years  old,  the  face  is  turned  three-quarters 
to  the  left  of  the  spectator,  the  eyes  looking  to  the  front.  He  has  abundant 
black  hair  and  mustache  and  a serious  expression  of  the  face.  His  habit  is 
black  and  he  wears  a stiff  linen  collar  close  about  the  neck.  The  background 
is  warm  gray.  From  one  of  the  royal  palaces  of  Spain.

seated  on  a stone  bench  in  the  garden  of  the  Vicarage.  The  mother  in  an

counsel  in  her  extremity.  The  priest  looks  nonchalantly  up  with  well-feigned 
surprise  at  the  erring  one,  and  a sleepy  old  tomcat  is  curled  up  on  the  ground 
by  his  side.

Christ,”  Florence  Academy,  and  the  “Medusa  Head”  at  the  Uffizi  attributed 
to  him,  are  the  only  extant  works  of  the  earlier  period  of  his  style,  which  closed 
in  1483.  Lodovico  Sforza,  Duke  of  Milan,  appointed  him  court  painter, 
director  of  the  newly  founded  Academy  of  Arts,  general  organizer  of  fetes  in . 
which  art  played  a conspicuous  part,  and  manager  of  all  enterprises  in  which 
a knowledge  of  hydraulics  engineering  and  general  science  was  necessarj'. 
For  the  Duke  he  executed  the  famous  wall  painting  of  the  “Last  Supper” 
(1495-98),  in  Santa  Maria  delle  Grazie,  and  modeled  an  equestrian  statue, 
never  cast,  of  his  father,  Francesco  Sforza.  WLen  Lodovico  was  overthroim 
by  the  French  (1499),  and  sent  to  France  to  die  in  a dungeon  at  the  Castle  of 
Loches,  Leonardo  returned  to  Florence,  thence  to  Venice,  and  (in  1502)  he 
visited  the  fortress  of  the  principal  cities  of  Romagna  as  militarj^  engineer  t-o

great  hall  of  the  Palazzo  Vecchio,  at  Florence.  In  October,  1507,  Leonardo 
once  more  established  himself  in  Milan,  until  1514,  when  he  accompanied

Florence  before  his  removal  to  Milan,  consequently  anterior  to  1483-85.”

and  was  admitted  into  the  small  but  select  circle  of  American  artists  then 
in  the  English  metropolis.  After  painting  portraits  in  London  for  three 
years,  he  returned  to  the  United  States  in  1809,  and  opened  a studio  in  New 
York,  where  the  balance  of  his  professional  life  was  spent.  He  devoted 
himself  to  portrait  painting  with  marked  success.

maker  in  New  London.  Soon  after.  Samuel  L.  Waldo  came  there  and 
painted  several  portraits,  the  sight  of  which  fascinated  young  Jewett  so 
much  that  he  offered  to  grind  the  colors  for  Mr.  Waldo  that  he  might  be 
near  and  see  him  at  his  work:  later  followed  him  to  New  York,  and  became 
his  assistant:  very  many  portraits  bear  the  impress  of  the  two  men  who 
worked  together  in  perfect  harmony  for  eighteen  consecutive  years.

and  their  souls  are  changed  into  long-suffering  donkeys  or  other  beasts  of 
burden.  So  the  boy  rows  lustily,  while  a comrade  fans  the  old  Fakir  in  order 
that  he  may  arrive  soon  enough  to  draw  his  last  breath  in  the  shadow  of  some 
temple  and  pass  directly  into  peace.  The  background  shows  a line  of  temple 
steps,  and  wooden  platforms,  built  out  over  the  stream  to  facilitate  bathing 
and  washing  in  the  waters  of  the  sacred  river,  as  well  as  for  meditation.  The 
devout  sit  for  hours  sheltered  under  their  straw  umbrellas  dotted  like  mush- 
looms  along  the  shore.  In  the  centre  of  the  background  is  the  burning  ghat, 
where  after  death  the  bodies  of  the  better  classes  are  burned  in  the  open.

WEST,  Benjamin.  American  School. 

Born  at  Springfield,  Penn.,  October  10,  1738;  died  in  London,  March 
11,  1820.  He  began  to  draw  when  seven  years  old  and  took  his  first  lessons 
in  preparing  colors  from  Cherokee  Indians.  After  a little  instruction  from 
a painter  named  Williams,  he  set  up,  when  eighteen  years  old,  in  Philadel- 
phia, as  a portrait  painter;  thence  removed  to  New  York,  and  in  1760  went 
to  Italy,  where  he  remained  until  1763,  when  he  settled  in  London.  His 
pictures  of  “Agrippina  bringing  home  the  ashes  of  Germanicus,”  painted 
for  the  Archbishop  of  York,  and  the  “Departure  of  Regulus,”  bought  by 
George  III,  won  him  royal  patronage  and  favor,  which  he  long  enjoyed. 
From  1769  to  1801,  during  which  time  he  received  all  orders  from  the  King, 
who  made  him  his  historical  painter,  1772,  West  gained  £34,187.  The 
seven  pictures  illustrating  revealed  religion,  which  he  painted  for  the  Oratory 
at  Windsor,  brought  him  in  £20,705,  and  his  many  portraits  of  members  of 
the  Royal  family  were  highly  remunerative.  On  the  death  of  Sir  Joshua 
Reynolds,  1792,  West  succeeded  him  as  President  of  the  Royal  Academy, 
of  which  he  had  been  one  of  the  founders  in  1768,  and  with  the  exception 
of  a few  months,  held  that  office  until  his  death,  in  1820. 

204  TRIUMPH  OF  LOVE. 

A youth,  bearing  in  his  right  hand  a flaming  torch  and  holding  with  his 
left  the  guiding  reins  of  a lion  and  a horse,  is  preceded  in  the  journey  over 
the  world  by  two  amours,  one  of  whom  is  mounted  upon  a flying  eagle. 
Following  this  group  is  a female  figure,  ho' ding  in  her  hand  a pair  of  snow- 
white  doves,  while  Cupid  clings  to  her  garments,  as  they  all  float  along  on 
a cloud,  dispelling  the  darkness  by  the  light  of  love.

What  aileth  thee,  Hagar?  fear  not;  for  God  hath  heard  the  voice  of  the  lad

187 


meeting  with  considerable  success  in  painting  small  whole  length  portraits, 
he  for  some  time  made  that  his  pursuit;  after  practising  some  years  in  London 
he  visited  Ireland,  where  he  painted  a large  picture  of  the  Irish  House  of

WILSON,  Richard,  R.A.  English  School. 

Bom  at  Pinegas,  Montgomeryshire,  1713;  died  at  Llanberris,  Carnar- 
vonshire, 1782.  An  eminent  English  landscape  painter.  He  early  mani- 
tested  a taste  for  drawing,  and  gave  such  promise  that  his  relative.  Sir  George 
Wynne,  took  him  to  London,  and  placed  him  under  an  obscure  portrait 
painter,  Thomas  Wright,  where  he  made  rapid  progress.  In  1748  he  painted 
a large  picture  of  the  Prince  of  Wales,  and  his  brother  the  Duke  of  York. 
In  1749  he  went  to  Italy.  While  stopping  at  Venice,  he  paid  a visit  to 
Zuccarelli,  who  happened  to  be  from  home,  and  Wilson,  to  pass  the  time, 
made  a sketch  in  oils,  of  the  view  from  the  painter’s  window.  Zuccarelli 
thought  so  highly  of  this  sketch  that  he  recommended  Wilson  to  relinquish 
portrait  and  take  to  landscape  painting.  A similar  experience  with  Vemet, 
in  Rome,  caused  Wilson  to  devote  himself  to  landscape  painting, 

234  THE  STORM.

cliff  at  the  right  is  an  old  castle.  By  a roadway  in  the  immediate  foreground 
is  a large  tree  split  and  swaying  in  the  wind,  and  a shepherd  with  his  flock 
are  making  their  way  to  a cottage  near  the  base  of  the  cliff.

490  FLORINDA. 

The  Maids  of  Honor  of  Roderick,  King  of  the  Spanish  Visigoths,  about 
A.D.  700.  The  king,  wishing  to  determine  which  of  their  number  was  the 
fairest,  retired  to  a lonely  spot,  where,  in  concealment,  he  was  a witness  of  the 
scene,  and  awarded  the  prize  of  beauty  to  Florinda,  whom  he  afterwards  made 
the  object  of  his  love.  Her  father,  in  revenge,  called  the  Arabs  into  Spain  and 
brought  about  the  Arab  Conquest. 

The  Empress  Eugenie  and  her  Maids  of  Honor  were  said  to  have  been  the 
models  for  the  painter. 

In  a thickly  wooded  glen  eleven  maids  of  honor,  semi-nude,  ready  for  a 
bath,  are  gathered  together  in  a semi-circle  around  a pool  of  water,  all  uncon- 
scious of  the  presence  of  the  king  who  is  peering  through  an  opening  in  the 
Wood  at  the  left.  The  castle  is  seen  above  in  the  distance.

to  New  Y'ork  to  visit  George  Inness,  by  whom  he  was  received  most  kindly.  The 
impression  made  upon  Wyant  at  this  meeting  was  lasting,  and  the  influence  of 
that  masterful  painter  may  be  traced  in  many  of  his  most  important  works.  He 
spent  some  years  at  Diisseldorf ; subsequently  at  London;  settled  at  New  Y’ork 
after  1864.  He  was  one  of  the  founders  of  the  Water  Color  Society,  and  a mem- 
ber of  the  National  Academy  of  Design.  Honorable  Mention,  Exposition  Uni- 
verselle,  Paris,  1889. 

601  VIEW  IN  COUNTY  KERRY.  IRELAND, 

A large  pool  of  water  with  its  grassy  border  occupies  the  center  of  a land- 
scape saturated  with  the  moisture  of  continuous  rains.  At  the  right  is  a 
whitewashed  cabin  snuggled  against  a rocky  ledge  from  which  a footpath  leads 
down  to  the  foreground.  An  atmosphere  of  mist  envelops  the  low  hills  and 
plains  beyond,  and  the  distant  mountains  rise  into  a clearing  sky  where  the 
vapory  clouds  are  slowly  lifting.

586  THE  DEATH  OF  A VENDEAN  CHIEF. 

This  picture  was  nearly  finished  at  the  artist’s  death.  It  depicts  an  inci- 
dent in  the  romantic  insurrection  of  the  inhabitants  of  La  Vendee,  March.  1793, 
to  March,  1796,  against  the  over-harsh  interference  of  the  revolutionists  with 
the  rights  of  their  simple  community. 

The  wounded  chief  surrounded  by  his  family  and  followers  is  hung  upon  a 
litter  of  straw  in  the  crypt  where  he  has  been  taken,  fatahy  wounded  after  a 
desperate  conflict.  A priest  kneels  by  his  side  administering  the  last  rites  of 
the  church,  and  his  grief-stricken  wife  leans  over  the  prostrate  form,  covering 
her  face  -with  one  hand  while  she  holds  out  the  crucifix  before  his  face  with  the 
other.  Two  women  at  the  left  have  tlrrown  themselves  into  each  other’s  arms, 
and  two  men  kneel  at  the  right  where  the  lighted  candles  shine  upon  them. 
Above  is  a Vendean  soldier  holding  a blunderbuss  under  his  arm  and  in  the 
center  of  the  picture  is  another  leaning  upon  his  weapon.  On  the  stone  stairs 
at  the  right,  in  deep  shadow,  is  a captive  soldier.

CRIVELLI,  Carlo.  Schools  of  Padua  and  Murano. 

1430?-1495?  By  descent,  and  probably  by  birth,  a Venetian.  Born  early 
In  the  XV.  Century  (1430?).  Little  is  known  of  his  history,  but  marked 
afiBnities  of  style  connect  him  with  the  Schools  of  Padua  and  Murano.  He 
settled,  perhaps,  a little  before  1468,  at  Ascoli,  in  the  Marches  of  Ancona,  and 
in  that  neighborhood  he  seems  to  have  spent  the  rest  of  his  lifetime.  The 
characteristic  leatures  of  his  art  are  sharpness,  not  to  say  hardness,  of  outline, 
combined  with  exact  modelling,  color  resplendent  and  diverse,  from  the 
primary  tints  to  the  most  delicate  tertiaries  supported  and  harmonized  by  the 
use  of  gold  and  the  introduction  of  gilt  and  silvered  ornaments  in  high  relief. 
Of  his  dated  works,  the  earliest  (1468)  is  the  altar-piece  in  S.  Silvestro  at 
Massa,  near  Fermo.  His  great  altar-piece  of  1476  is  in  the  National  Gallery, 
London;  two  exquisite  pictures  of  the  “Enthroned  Madonna  and  Infant” 
are  in  the  Lateran  Gallery,  Eome,  dated  respectively  1481  and  1483.  A 
superb  triptych,  also  one  of  his  finer  works,  a “Coronation  of  the  Virgin” 
(date  1493),  and  four  other  works  by  him,  are  in  the  Brera  at  Milan;  his 
splendid  “Annunciation”  (1486)  is  in  the  National  Gallery.  The  Vatican 
has  a passionately  conceived  “ PietS.,”  and  the  Berlin  Gallery  has  an  important 
“ Madonna”  and  a “Magdalen.”  There  are  many  other  works  by  this  artist. 
In  1490,  Crivelli  was  knighted  by  Ferdinand  of  Capua.

LHERMITXEj  Ldon  Augustin.  French  School.  (See page  105.) 
AMONG  THE  LOWLY. 

The  following  is  a translation  of  a letter  written  by  the  artist : 

WissANT,  Pas  de  Calais,  August  11,  1905. 

Gentlemen  ; To  succinctly  reply  to  the  question  that  ycm  hare  asked  me 
concerning  the  Salon  painting  of  which  you  have  just  become  the  possessors,  I 
will  say  to  you  that  I have  wished  to  depict  the  Christ,  the  friend  of  the 
humble  folk,  eternal  consoler  of  the  poor  for  whom  life  is  a burden. 

He  brings  to  them,  in  coming  into  their  midst,  the  comforting  and  helpful 
words  which  engender  hope. 

A large  part  of  the  interest  in  my  painting  centres  upon  the  young  mother 
surrounded  by  her  children.  She  is  wholly  absorbed  in  the  contemplation  of 
the  divine  visitor,  to  whose  exhortations  she  is  listening  in  rapt  devotion. 

I have  endeavored  to  bring  to  all  of  the  figures  in  this  scene  the  varieties 
of  emotions  proper  to  each,  but  united  as  one  in  the  expression  of  confidence — 
respectful  in  the  old,  searchingly  so  in  the  young. 

To  better  convey  the  feeling,  I have  placed  in  the  light,  in  this  sombre  hut, 
the  principal  actors  of  the  scene,  taking  advantage  of  that  privilege  which 
nature  placed  at  my  service  to  help  me  in  my  artistic  intentions. 

It  is  thus  that  the  effect  of  the  concentrated  light  has  seemed  to  me  to 
contribute  to  the  expression  of  the  feeling,  the  emotion,  sought. 

I am  happy  to  see  that  you  have  not  been  insensible  to  these  researches  in 
art,  and  charmed  that  this  picture,  the  execution  of  which  has  occupied  nearly 
all  of  last  year,  goes  to  America  as  a specimen  of  my  work. 

I do  not  forget  that  it  is  to  you  that  I owe  this  honor,  which  I fully  appre- 
ciate. 

Permit  me,  therefore,  Gentlemen,  to  offer  to  you  in  this  regard,  with 
feelings  of  gratitude,  the  expression  of  my  most  distinguished  sentiments  and 
entire  devotion.

JANUARY,  1906. 


CONSTABLE,  John,  R.A.  English  School. 

ON  THE  RIVER  STOUR. 

The  scene,  which  is  overlooked  from  a slight  elevation  on  the  bank  of  the 
river,  extends  down  through  a picturesque  valley  in  the  County  of  Suffolk, 
where  Constable  lived  and  loved  so  well  to  paint.  The  low-lying,  deep  blue 
hills  which  skirt  the  horizon  rise  into  a sky  filled  with  broken,  heavy,  watery 
clouds,  which  shadow  the  broad  meadowlands  beneath  ; gleams  of  sunlight 
illumine  the  broad  acres  and  glint  over  the  surface  of  the  stream  which  winds 
down  beneath  a rustic  bridge,  in  the  middle  distance,  to  the  foreground  of  the 
picture,  where  two  clumsy  boats,  with  figures,  are  drawn  up  near  the  left 
bank  of  the  river.  Above  the  boats  is  a lai'ge  group  of  sturdy  oaks ; at  the 
right,  a cottage  snuggled  down  among  a cluster  of  small  trees  and  bushes 
which  creep  along  the  bank  of  the  stream  to  the  immediate  foreground,  where 
two  boys  are  seated  on  the  bank  fishing. 

Gift  of  Mr.  William  T.  Blodgett  and  his  sister.  Miss  Eleanor  Blodgett,  in  memory  of  their 
father,  190a,  On  canvas,  37  H.;  63  W. 


GAINSBOROUGH,  Thomas,  R.A.  English  School. 

PORTRAIT  OF  THE  ARTIST  BY  HIMSELF,  when  about  40  years 

of  age. 

Seated  sideways  to  the  left  with  his  arms  folded  across  his  breast;  he 
wears  a reddish-brown  coat  and  white  neckcloth.  The  face  is  nearly  in  profile 
and  the  soft  gray  eyes  look  directly  out  of  the  picture  at  the  spectator.  His 
hair  is  a chestnut  brown,  and  melts  off  from  the  face  into  a warm,  dark  back- 
ground. The  portrait  is  of  a man  of  a highly  sensitive,  impressionable,  and 
emotional  nature.

REYNOLDS,  Sir  Joshua,  P.R.A.  English  School. 


PORTRAIT  OF  MRS.  BALDWIN , Wife  of  the  British  Minister  Pleni- 
potentiary to  the  Court  of  Teheran. 

Seated  upon  a dull  red  cushioned  divan,  with  the  figure  to  the  front,  the 
face  turned  to  the  left  in  profile.  She  wears  a Persian  costume  with  an  old 
gold  and  white  turban,  head-dress,  topped  with  a bunch  of  red  flowers.  Her 
hair  is  black  and  falls  in  small  braids  over  her  left  shoulder;  depending  from  a 
black  ribbon  about  her  neck  are  strings  of  fine  pearls;  the  gown  is  striped  silk, 
golden  brown  in  color,  with  broad  sash  and  buckle  at  the  decollete  waist,  with 
a white  chemise;  a broad  ermine  cape  covers  the  shoulders,  falling  gracefully 
down  into  her  lap.  The  background  is  deep  and  rich  in  its  warm  brown 
tones,  and  has  a dull  red  curtain  at  the  left  drawn  up,  showing  a gleam  of  light 
from  a window. 

Gift  of  Mr.  William  T.  Blodgett  and  his  sister.  Miss  Eleanor  Blodgett,  in  memory  of  their 
father,  1906.  On  canvas,  35  H.;  27  W. 


ROMNEY,  George.  English  School. 

Born  at  Furness,  Lancashire,  1734;  died  at  Kendal,  1802.  Apprenticed 
to  a cabinet-maker.  After  residing  at  Kendal  and  York,  Romney  established 
himself  in  London,  1702,  where  he  obtained  a premium  from  the  Society  of 
Arts  for  a picture  of  the  “Death  of  General  Wolfe,”  and  a second  for  an 
historical  painting  in  1765.  He  accompanied  Ozias  Humphry  to  Rome,  and 
on  his  return  in  1775  became  established  as  a favorite  portrait  painter  in  Caven- 
dish Square;  he  afterwards  removed  to  Hampstead,  and  finally  retired  to  Ken- 
dal, where  he  died.  He  executed  many  portraits  of  Lady  Hamilton. 


PORTRAIT  OF  MRS.  FITZIIERBERT. 

Painted  for  George  IV.  when  Prince  Regent.  Seated  with  the  figure  to 
the  front,  her  face  turned  to  the  right,  nearly  in  profile,  the  eyes  looking  in 
the  same  direction.  She  wears  a white  dress,  open  at  the  neck,  with  a sash 
around  her  waist,  her  abundant  blond  hair,  bound  with  a pale  blue  ribbon, 
falls  about  her  face  and  shoulders  in  a charming  and  artistic  manner.  The 
background  is  warm  gray  and  cloudy  in  effect. 

Gift  of  Mr.  William  T.  Blodgett  and  his  sister,  Miss  Eleanor  Blodgett,  in  memory  of  their

AUSTRIAN  SCHOOL,  15th  Century. 

SCENES  FROM  THE  LIVES  OF  TWO  SAINTS. 

Two  panels,  probably  wings  of  an  altarpiece,  painted  rn  both  sides.  On 
the  left  wing  is  seen  (1)  a young  Saint  sitting  unharmed  among  wild  beasts; 
(2)  The  Beheading  of  the  Saint.  On  the  right  wing,  a Saint  in  Bishop’s  mitre 
performing  a miracle  with  a barrel  of  wine ; (2)  The  Saint  Resuscitating  a child. 
Purchased,  1871.  Oil.  Gold  background.  Panels,  54  II.;  31  W. 

Hitherto  no  clue  has  been  found  as  to  the  names  or  histories  of  the 
Saints  repres^ted. 


ITALIAN  SCHOOL.  (Tuscan.) 

PART  OF  A POLYPTYCH, 

consisting  of  three  panels  of  unequal  size,  representing,  to  the  left.  Expulsion 
o!  Devils  from  Heaven,  The  Mission  of  the  Apostles,  to  the  right,  St.  Giles. 

Gift  of  Mr.  J.  Brutn  Andrews,  1876.  Panel,  591  H.;  391  W. 

Painted  in  Tampei'a  upon  gold  baefegroimd,  with  gilded  Gothic  framework  (partly  restored). 

The  painting  shows  strong  traces  of  Siennese  influence,  but  the  types  are 
Boo-Italian,  and  probably  the  picture  is  an  example  of  the  little  known 
Avignonese  School.  The  confinement  of  the  Popes  at  Avignon^  1309  to  1377, 
led  to  an  immigration  of  Italian  artists,  of  whom  the  chief  was  Simone  Martini. 
The  native  school  must  have  felt  the  influence  of  this,  with  the  result  of 
producing  such  a variation  from  the  Siennese  style  as  this  panel  displays. 
The  fact  that  the  Saint  represented  is  St.  Giles,  indicates  a French  rather  than 
an  Italian  ori^,  and  this  view  is  borne  out  by  the  misspelling  kite  for  ite,  in 
the  picture  of  the  Mission  of  the  Apostles.  This  was  a French  provincial 
solecism.

PART  OF  FRIEZE  FROM  CASTLE  OF  SAN  MARTINO. 

Over  each  doorway  are  three  panels,  from  a series  which  originally 
decorated  a room  in  the  castle  of  San  Martino  di  Guznago,  near  Mantua, 
which  belonged  to  the  Gonzagas.  Thirty-six  parts  of  this  frieze  existed  in 
Mr.  Willett’s  collection.  Some  are  now  in  the  Victoria  and  Albert  Museum, 
London.  They  consist  of  heads  of  celebrated  persons,  mostly  seen  in  profile, 
within  an  archway,  the  perspective  of  which  shows  that  they  were  to  be  seen 
from  below.  They  are  here  replaced  in  la  position  similar  to  that  for  which 
they  were  originally  intended.  Some  of  these  heads  are  described  by  Mr. 
Herbert  F.  Cook,  in  his  ‘‘Catalogue  to  the  Exhibition  of  Milanese  Masters, 
at  the  Burlington  Fine  Arts  Club,  1899.”  He  attributes  them  to  Bramantino,

Bom  at  Haarlem,  and  baptized  there  May  24,  1619;  died  there  1668. 
Son  of  Paul  us  Joosten  Wouwerman.  He  leamt  the  practice  of  his  art  from 
his  father,  and  studied  landscape  painting  under  Jan  Wijnants,  but  he  is 
supposed  to  have  also  profited  by  the  examples  of  Andries  Both  and  Pieter 
van  Laer.  Landscape  always  played  a prominent  part  in  his  compositions. 
Horses  were  his  favorite  study  and  he  generally  found  reason  to  introduce  at 
least  one  of  those  animals  into  his  pictures:  a white  horse  often  serves  as  his 
principal  mass  of  light.  Few  galleries  are  without  specimens  of  his  work; 
in  many  he  is  abundantly  represented;  the  Amsterdam  Museum  has  13, 
Museum  at  The  Hague  9,  the  National  Gallery  9.

THE  WILLIAM  H.  VANDERBILT  COLLECTION 

or 


MODERN  PAINTINGS 

LENT  BY 

MR.  GEORGE  W.  VANDERBILT 


The  Catalogue  of  this  loan  is  a reprint  from  that  of  Mr,  William 
H.  Vanderbilt,  published  in  1886,  with  a prefatory  note  by  Mr.  S.  P. 
Avery.  


NOTE. 

Mr.  William  H.  Vanderbilt  was  born  in  the  year  1821.  In  1854  he  accom- 
panied his  father,  Commodore  Cornelius  Vanderbilt,  and  other  members  of  his 
family,  on  his  steamship  the  “White  Star,”  during  the  famous  trip  to  notable 
parts  of  Europe.  It  was  the  desire  to  visit  Rome,  but  on  account  of  the  cholera 
then  raging  there  they  could  only  land  at  Civita  Vecchia,  where  Mr.  W.  H. 
Vanderbilt  purchased  his  first  painting.  Later  on,  in  the  early  ’60 ’s,  he  began 
to  purchase  and  commission  pictures  from  a number  of  our  native  artists. 
This  experience  did  much  to  interest  him  in  collecting  works  of  art.  His  first 
purchases  were  distributed  throughout  his  residence  on  Fifth  Avenue,  south- 
east corner  of  Fortieth  Street.  During  1868  and  succeeding  years  he  began 
to  purchase  works  by  foreign  artists.  On  the  death  of  his  father  in  1877  his 
increasing  means  enabled  Mr.  Vanderbilt  to  purchase  examples  of  the  cele- 
brated living  and  recently  deceased  painters,  which  at  that  time  had  not 
become  common  in  this  country.  Frequently  going  to  Europe,  he  Ausited 
the  national  and  private  galleries,  attended  notable  public  sales,  conferred 
with  reliable  experts,  made  extensive  purchases,  and  gave  commissions  to 
several  prominent  artists  of  the  time. 

In  course  of  events  and  with  many  art  accumulations  Mr.  Vanderbilt 
found  that  he  required  more  extensive  premises.  He  then  built  his  final 
residence  at  640  Fifth  Avenue,  with  adjoining  picture  galleries,  to  which  he 
removed  in  1881,  and  where  he  continually  added  to  his  collection  up  to  the 
time  of  his  death  in  1885.  Since  then  no  paintings  have  been  added,  neither 
have  any  of  them  ever  been  exhibited  outside  the  residence,  where  for  several 
years  it  has  not  been  convenient  to  admit  A-isitors.  In  consideration  of  the 
many  applications  to  see  the  paintings,  Mr.  George  ’^’'anderbilt,  having  planned 
to  be  absent  from  the  city  for  the  most  of  the  coming  year,  has  in  the  most 
generous  manner  loaned  this  portion  of  his  father’s  collection  to  the  Metro- 
politan Museum  of  Art,  where  it  can  be  freely  enjoyed  by  the  public.

9 LOUIS  XIV.  AND  THE  GRAND  CONDK 

(Extract  of  Letter  from  the  Artist.) 

“In  order  to  deliver  your  picture  of  the  ‘Reception  of  the  Prince  of  Conde 
by  Louis  XIV.,’  I have  worked  upon  it  without  intermission  to  reach  the 
desired  end,  and  I hope  that  I have  succeeded.  I hope  also  that  you  will  be 
satisfied,  for  I have  done  my  best  to  arrive  at  this  result.  A few  lines  about 
the  subject  will  make  you  understand  it  in  its  details.  The  reception  takes 
place  on  the  grand  staircase  at  Versailles.  This  staircase  no  longer  exists. 
It  was  destroyed  under  Louis  XV.,  but  there  remains  an  engra^^ng  of  it  at 
that  time,  very  well  executed,  which  has  enabled  me  to  reconstruct  it  with 
truth.  In  the  year  1674  Cond4  had  returned  to  Court,  where  he  was  received 
in  triumph.  The  King  came  forward  to  meet  him  on  the  grand  staircase, 
which  was  not  his  usual  habit.  The  Prince  was  going  up  slowly,  on  account 
of  the  gout,  which  made  him  almost  helpless.  As  soon  as  he  saw  the  monarch. 
‘Sire,’  said  he,  ‘I  beg  Your  Majesty’s  pardon  to  make  you  wait  so  long.’  ‘My 
cousin,’  answered  tlie  King,  ‘do  not  hurry.  When  one  is  so  loaded  with 
laurels  as  you  are,  it  is  difficult  to  walk  quickly.’  Louis  XIV.  pressed  him  in 
his  arms,  and  embraced  him  repeatedly.  By  the  side  of  Louis  XIV.  stands 
his  son,  the  Duke  of  Burgundy,  whom  they  called  the  Great  Dauphin,  at  that 
+ime  thirteen  years  old.  He  died  while  young,  without  having  reigned,  and 
was  the  father  of  Louis  XV.  Behind  him  is  his  preceptor  Bossuet,  Bishop 
of  Meaux.  On  the  right  and  on  the  left  are  members  of  the  Court.”

10  AMBULANCE  CORPS. 

(Extract  of  a Letter  from  the  Artist.) 

“The  title  of  my  picture  is  ‘The  Arrest  of  an  Ambulance,  Eastern  Part  of 
France,  January,  1871.’  They  are  civil  .\mbulanciers,  who  have  been  taken 
by  a Prussian  patrol  in  a village  where  a battle  has  taken  place.  When  their 
papers  have  been  examined  and  recognized  in  order  by  the  Prussian  general, 
they  will  be  released  and  authorized  to  collect  the  wounded  and  assist  in  the 
German  infirmaries.  The  spot  where  the  scene  is  laid  is  a village  in  Franche- 
Comte;  they  have  fought  there;  the  Germans  occupy  it.  The  foot-soldiers 
who  surround  the  ambulances  are  Prussian  Chasseurs  (Rheinisches  Jagers, 
Battalion  No.  8).  The  Prussian  general  is  accompanied  by  an  officer  of  the 
Hussars  (Leibhusaren,  Regiment  No.  2),  and  by  an  officer  of  the  staff;  his

cap  and  cloth-facing  of  amaranth.  The  two  other  officers  arer  the  one  in  blue 
tunic  and  yellow  collar,  an  officer  of  the  Dragoons ; the  other,  an  officer  of  the 
Cuirassiers  (Brandenburgisches  Cuirassiers,  Regiment  No.  6,  Kaiser  Nicholas 
I.  von  Russland).  The  dead  body  in  the  foreground  is  that  of  a Bavarian 
foot-soldier.  Those  are  also  Bavarians  who  are  at  the  end  of  the  street,  and 
at  the  entrance  of  the  house  under  the  fagaclc,  and  pierced  by  bullets.  Here 
are  very  minute  explanations,  but  I thought  that  Mr.  Vanderbilt  would  be 
pleased  to  have  all  possible  details  about  his  picture.  I hope  that  he  may  ba 
satisfied  with  it,  and  that  it  will  receive  many  compliments."

12  THE  PICTURE  GALLERY. 

This  represents  a Gallery  of  Antique  Paintings.  Several  visitors  are 
making  good  use  of  the  catalogues  and  references  which  they  have  found  in 
the  boxes  on  the  tables.  On  the  easel  is  a Monochrome  by  “Apelles";  above 
which  appears  part  of  a large  picture,  taken  from  the  great  Mosaic  in  the 
Naples  Museum,  which  is  probably  a copy  of  the  painting  “The  Battle  of 
Issus,”  by  Philoxenos  of  Eretria.  The  picture  over  the  doorway  might  be 
attributed  to  Marcus  Ludius,  the  inventor  of  that  most  charming  and  well- 
known  arcliitectural  decoration  in  which  Pompeii  abounds.  Through  the 
doorway  is  seen  another  work,  taken  from  a Mosaic  in  the  Naples  Museum, 
representing  “Strength  Captivated  by  Love.”  The  life-size  figure  is,  by  some 
archaeologists,  believed  to  be  the  “Medea"  by  Timomachos  of  Byzantium, 
which  picture  Julius  Caesar  bought  from  the  artist  for  40  talents  (£8,000)  for 
his  collection  in  the  gardens  on  the  Tiber,  and  left  by  will  to  the  Roman  people. 
Next  to  this,  “The  Sacrifice  of  Iphigenia,”  by  Timanthes,  is  a picture  much 
praised  by  ancient  writers;  to  the  right  appears  a foreshortened  Lion,  which 
there  is  reason  to  believe  is  the  work  of  Pausias,  who  is  said  to  have  been  the 
first  to  paint  objects  in  foreshortening,  and  never  to  have  been  surpassed  in 
that  branch  of  art.  The  picture  above  it  represents  “A  Theatrical  Re- 
hearsal,” taken  from  a Mosaic  in  the  Naples  Museum. 

This  pair  of  pictures  (8  and  12)  have  been  engraved  by  A.  Blanchard  of 
Paris.

Lucy,  scarcely  yet  recovered  from  the  bewilderment  of  her  terror  and  the 
faintness  of  her  swoon,  clings  with  all  her  light  weight  to  the  stranger’s  arm, 
while  yet  she  seems  to  be  urging  him  onward.  There  is  a look  of  entreaty, 
blended  with  trust  and  helplessness,  in  the  beseeching  blue  eyes  and  in  the 
wistful  face  The  plaid,  which  she  wears  in  the  graceful  old  Scottish  fashion, 
folded  mantillawise  over  her  head  and  shoulders,  still  wet  with  the  water  he 
has  used  to  restore  her  to  consciousness,  clings  closely  round  the  fair  face  and 
neck  and  slender  figure.  Her  small  gloved  hands  are  clasped  clingingly  round 
his  strong  arm.  He,  with  knit  brow  and  dark  eyes  fixed  in  a far-off  look — it 
may  be  that  he  now  first  sees  the  enemy  of  his  house,  the  author  of  his  father’s 
ruin  and  death,  the  usurper  of  his  birthright;  or  that  he  already  reads,  as  in  a 
vision,  the  mysterious  interweaving  of  his  fate  ■with  that  of  the  innocent 
daughter  of  his  and  his  house’s  enemy,  who  clings  to  his  arm,  'ndth  dreamj’’ 
eyes,  that  seem,  like  his  own,  to  see  far  into  the  futme.

22  PAYING  THE  RENT. 

(Extract  of  Letter  from  the  Artist.) 

“The  subject  is  a representation  of  what  is  usually  to  be  seen  in  the 
business-room  of  an  ‘agent,’  where,  as  our  Scottish  Burns  expresses  it,  ‘Puir

tenant  bodies,  scant  o’  cash,’  drop  in  one  after  the  other  to  pay  rents  and 
arrears;  often  with  great  difficulty  to  themselves,  and  sometimes  not  without 
unwillingness,  even  when  they  can,  from  a failing  not  uncommon  in  frail 
human  nature,  viz. : a distaste  to  part  with  the  cash.  The  agent,  accustomed 
to  the  work,  and  used  to  the  many  complaints  of  ‘high  rents,  hard  times, 
failure  of  crops,’  etc.,  takes  it  all  as  a philosopher,  and  quietly  listens,  chats, 
and  nibs  his  pen,  having  but  one  point  in  view — ^getting  the  cash.  The  par- 
ticular incident  illustrates  what  is  not  uncommon — a difficulty  in  arranging 
contra-accounts,  and  for  work  ‘done  for  his  Honor,  and  for  which  his  Honor 
said  himself  was  to  be  deducted  from  the  rint.’  The  Lady,  who  is  sometimes 
the  better  man  of  the  two,  is  active  and  looking  after  their  interests,  knowing 
that  a mistake  might  be  made;  while  the  clerk,  likely  to  be  more  sharp  than 
polite,  feels  that  in  his,  for  the  day,  imposing  and  responsible  position,  he  is 
called  upon  to  look  closely  into  such  charges — if  a mistake  exists,  it  may  be 
in  their  favor — and,  in  all  probability,  will  in  the  end  have  to  refer  the  matter 
to  his  superior.  The  other  figures  are  all  accessories  of  the  same  story:  The 
man  coming  in  warm,  rubbing  his  head  with  his  kerchief,  chatting  to  the  old 
man  of  the  weather,  and  the  hard  run  he  has  had  to  be  in  time  before  his 
Honor  got  busy,  as  he  had  to  go  look  after  some  heifers  in  the  field  heyant 
Patsy  Conroy’s  after  he  had  done  his  business;  another  stooping  to  pick  up 
some  papers  he  has  dropped  out  of  his  hat;  while  the  agent’s  ‘own  man’  is 
seen  coming  in  at  the  door  with  some  books  which  will  be  required  in  the 
course  of  the  day.  This  is  something  like  what  I intended.  After  the  warm 
reception  the  picture  has  met  with  in  Paris,  I think  I may  venture  to  hope  it 
will  still  add  to  my  reputation.”

(Extract  of  a Letter  from  the  Artist.) 

"Believe  me,  I consider  it  a great  honor  to  have  one  of  my  pictures  in 
your  collection.  You  may  be  assured  that  I will  take  every  pains  with  your 
picture — not  only  for  myself,  but  for  you — to  make  it  one  of  my  best  works. 
Nothing  shall  be  neglected  in  the  finisliing  of  it,  as  I wish  with  all  my  heart  to 
give  you  satisfaction.  . . . The  subject  of  the  painting  is  ‘The  Portrait.’ 

A young  lady  of  noble  birth  is  having  her  portrait  painted.  She  is  sitting  on 
a stairway  covered  with  rich  tapestries.  An  attendant  amuses  her  with  some 
music.  A young  man  near  her  is  held  by  her  conversation  and  the  animation 
of  her  face.  In  the  foreground  is  the  artist  with  his  easel  and  canvas.  While 
he  works  a OToup  of  lords  contemplate  the  picture.  At  the  left  a page  prepares 
some  refreshments.  The  costumes  are  of  Holland,  early  in  the  seventeenth 
century.”

of  Rochefort.  It  is  the  hour  when  the  cool  air  touches  the  earth  and  strikes 
the  trees,  prognosticating  the  arrival  of  night.  The  circle  is  vast,  the  rocks 
which  tower  above  it  have  a dry  and  primitive  look,  making  a fitting  place  for 
a nocturnal  visit  of  Macbethian  witches.  Nothing  is  exaggerated  or  too

(Extract  of  a Letter  from  the  Artist.) 

“I  have  received  with  great  pleasure  your  obliging  letter.  No  one  can  be 
more  sensible  than  I to  the  expressions  of  sympathy  which  it  contains.  You

GALLERY  16. 


must  have  already  received  the  picture  of  ‘Pia  de  Tolomei,’  which  I have 
painted  for  you.  I will  give  you  the  passage  of  history  which  inspired  my 
work.*  Pia,  of  the  noble  family  of  the  Tolomei,  of  Siena,  was  shut  up  in  a 
castle  of  the  Maremma,  by  her  husband,  Nello  della  Pietra,  who  accused  her  of 
infidelity.  The  poisoned  air  of  this  region  killed  her.  I have,  then,  imagined 
her  upon  the  terrace  of  the  castle,  strong  in  her  innocence,  and  defying  her  evil 
destiny.  Pia  has  been  for  many  years  a favorite  subject  with  Italian  painters 
and  poets.  Her  story  is  a mysterious  one,  and  her  personality  has  always 
attracted  a noble  sympathy.  Dante,  who  places  her  in  his  ‘Purgatory,’ 
devotes  to  her  only  a few  lines  of  the  Fifth  Canto,  but  these  few  lines  are  a 
poem  in  themselves: 

‘Ah I when  thou  hast  returned  unto  the  world. 

And  rested  there  from  thy  long  journeying. 

Do  thou  remember  me,  who  am  the  Pia? 

Siena  made  me;  unmade  me,  Maremma; 

He  knoweth  it  who  has  encircled  first. 

Espousing  me,  my  finger  with  his  gem.’ 

“Alfieri  has  written  a fine  tragedy,  and  many  poets  have  sung  the  beauty 
and  the  sad  fate  of  Pia  de  Tolomei.  You  know  my  aspirations.  I do  not  need, 
therefore,  to  tell  you  what  an  attraction  this  noble  and  touching  figure  must 
have  for  me.  I have  exerted  myself,  therefore,  to  the  utmost  to  paint  the  sub- 
ject as  it  presents  itself  to  my  imagination.  My  artist  friends,  and  others  in 
whom  I place  great  confidence,  have  praised  the  picture  very  highly;  and,  for 
my  own  part,  I am  well  pleased  that  this  picture  is  to  go  to  you,  for  I consider 
it  not  only  one  of  my  very  best  works,  but  also  one  of  the  most  affecting  that 
I have  painted.”

♦The  death  of  Pia  de  Tolomei  occurred  in  the  year  1295,  or  thirty  years  before  the  birth 
of  Dante;  so  that  at  the  epoch  at  which  Dante  wrote  his  poem,  the  event  must  have  beeir 
fresh  in  memory  of  men  of  Tuscany.

“Le  Bourget,  riddled  with  shell  and  assailed  by  an  entire  division  of  the 
Prussian  guards,  had  for  the  second  time  fallen  into  the  enemy’s  possession. 
Everything  appeared  ended.  But  in  the  village  church  eight  French  officers 
and  about  twenty  men  still  resisted;  they  defended  themselves  to  the  last  ex- 
tremity, and  it  became  necessary  to  fire  musketry  through  the  windows  and 
bring  cannon  before  the  remnant  of  this  heroic  band  would  surrender.” —

77  THE  WATER  CARRIER. 

In  a letter  addressed  to  his  friend  Thore  in  1860,  Millet  refers  to  thS* 
pJcture  as  follows:  “In  the  woman  coming  from  drawing  water,  I did  not  try 
to  portray  a servant,  but  a wife  who  had  just  drawn  water  for  her  household 
needs — the  water  with  which  she  makes  her  husband’s  soup-^nd  that  she 
should  appear  to  be  carrying  neither  more  nor  less  than  the  weight  of  the  full 
pails;  that  through  the  kind  of  grimace  that  is  forced  on  her  by  the  dragging 
down  of  the  arms  and  the  half-closed  eyes,  that  just  allow  her  to  see,  one  could 
divine  on  her  visage  an  air  of  rustic  goodness.  I have  avoided,  as  I alwaj's  do, 
with  a sort  of  horror,  anything  that  turned  towards  the  sentimental ; I wislied, 
on  the  contrary,  to  show  her  accomplishing  wdth  simplicity  and  willingness 
an  act  vt^hich  is,  ■with  the  other  household  duties,  an  everyday  nart  of  her 
life.”

THE  SOWER. 


“While  patiently  studying  the  action  of  his  reapers,  Millet  produced  a 
6gure  which  had  long  occupied  his  thoughts.  We  know  what  a serious  affair 
the  sowing  is  to  an  agricultural  people.  Plowing,  manuring,  and  harrowing 
are  done  with  comparative  indifference,  at  any  rate  without  heroic  passion; 
but  when  a man  puts  on  the  white  grain-bag,  rolls  it  around  his  left  arm,  fills 
it  with  seed,  the  hope  of  the  coming  year,  that  man  exercises  a sort  of  sacred 
ministry.  He  says  nothing,  looks  straight  before  him,  measures  the  furrow, 
and,  with  a movement  cadenced  like  the  rhythm  of  a mysterious  song,  throws 
the  grain  which  falls  to  the  earth  and  will  soon  be  covered  by  the  harrow. 
The  rhythmic  walk  of  the  sower  and  his  action  are  superb.  The  importance 
of  the  deed  is  real,  and  he  feels  his  responsibility.  If  he  is  a good  laborer  he 
will  know  how  much  seed  to  throw  with  every  fling  of  his  hand,  adjusting  the 
amount  sown  to  the  nature  of  the  soil.  I have  seen  sowers  who,  before  they 
put  foot  upon  the  field,  would  toss  a handful  of  grain  into  the  air  in  the  sign  of 
a cross;  then,  stepping  upon  the  field,  they  would  pronounce,  in  a low  voice, 
some  indistinct  words  which  sounded  like  a prayer.”  “The  Sower”  was  sent 
to  the  Salon  of  1850,  then  held  at  the  Palais  Royal.  It  made  some  noise;  the 
young  school  talked  about  it,  reproduced  it  in  lithography,  and  it  has  remained 
in  the  memory  of  artists  as  Millet’s  chef-d’asuvre.  Th^ophile  Gautier  was 
touched  by  it.  In  the  following  quotation  we  see  the  impression  made  by 
this  virile  work: 

“‘The  Sower,’  by  M.  J.  F.  Millet,  impresses  us  as  the  first  pages  of  ‘Mare 
au  Diable’  of  Georges  Sand,  which  are  about  labor  and  rustic  toil.  The  night 
is  coming,  spreading  its  gray  wings  over  the  earth ; the  sower  marches  with  a 
rhythmic  step,  flinging  the  grain  in  the  furrow;  he  is  followed  by  a cloud  of 
pecking  birds;  he  is  covered  with  dark  rags,  his  head  by  a curious  cap.  He 
is  bony,  swart,  meager,  under  this  livery  of  poverty,  yet  it  is  life  which  his 
large  hands  sheds;  he  who  has  nothing  pours  upon  the  earth,  with  a superb 
gesture,  the  bread  of  the  future.  On  the  other  side  of  the  slope  a last  ray  of 
the  sun  shows  a pair  of  oxen  at  the  end  of  their  furrow,  strong  and  gentle 
companions  of  man,  whose  recompense  will  one  day  be  the  slaughter-house. 
This  is  the  only  light  of  the  picture,  which  is  bathed  in  shadow,  and  presents 
to  the  eye,  under  a cloudy  sky,  nothing  but  newly  ploughed  earth.  Of  all 
the  peasants  sent  to  the  Salon  this  year,  we  much  prefer  ‘The  Sower.’  There 
is  something  great  and  of  the  grand  style  in  the  figure,  with  its  violent  gesture, 
its  proud  raggedness,  which  seems  to  be  painted  with  the  very  earth  that  the 
sower  is  planting.” — (Sensier’s  “Life  of  Millet.”)
